Introduction
Love of power, operating through greed and through personal ambition, was the cause of all these evils. Thucydides, from History Of The Peloponnesian War
Hillary Clinton is far from unique as an American political phenomenon. In most respects, she is in harmony with many other politicians in the United States who have ambitions fueled by insatiable egos.
Her flaws and vices are not distinct from what is all too common among many individuals who comprise the American political establishment. And therein lies the danger of her election as the 44th president of the United States.
At a time of immense criticality, America urgently requires excellence in leadership. Unfortunately, the political horizon is thickly shrouded with mediocre pretenders to the throne. Hillary Clinton is already being proclaimed as a front-runner for succeeding the inept George W. Bush. She personifies the worst of what is being offered to the American people by their broken and dangerously flawed political system. Far from being a superlative figure of state, her unexceptional character only made remarkable by grandiose personal ambition will ensure that America lacks the leadership skills and qualities that are imperative for her to endure as the world’s major power. A second Clinton presidency, personified by the megalomaniac carpetbagger senator from New York, will put finality to the accelerating path to national ruin that the United States is currently embarked upon.
“Hillary Clinton Nude” seeks to strip bare the propaganda and PR spin that her campaign directors and consultants will inevitably cook up in the 2008 presidential campaign. What will remain is raw naked truth. However, this book goes beyond exposing Hillary Clinton. She is a microcosm of all that is rotten and insufferable about the American political system in its current state of deformity. Observing Hillary Clinton “nude” will almost blind us by the light of painful truth, for to understand what is nightmarish about the prospects of her presidency, one must also comprehend what has become terminally corroded within the wider political culture and social context that has given birth to America’s present state of distress.
