As they say in the investment ads, past performance should not be taken as a guarantee of future returns. Even if we agree to give HRC credit for all the successes and none of the failures of her time in the White House (as if we can agree what they were), it's unclear that her talents and alliances give her an a priori claim to superior qualifications to deal with a changed world.

Second, why is it that this group thinks that anyone vying for the position of the most powerful leader on the planet does not need to have any experience and qualifications.
