That would be my guess. Some claim they will but I'll really have to see it to believe it.

SEN CLINTON VOWS ROLL BACK EXECUTIVE
Thursday, October 18, 2007 - FreeMarketNews.com

Senator Hillary Clinton said yesterday that if she is elected president, she intends to roll back President Bush's expansion of executive authority, including his use of presidential signing statements to put his own interpretation on bills passed by Congress or to claim authority to disobey them entirely. "I think you have to restore the checks and balances and the separation of powers, which means reining in the presidency," Clinton told the Boston Globe's editorial board. -Boston Globe

They don't care. If she says it, and they hear her, they don't believe her. If they don't hear her, they don't believe she said it.

I say, not only will she do so, but she's got a better idea on HOW to do so than do the others.

This is another thread speaking against Senator clinton with no basis other than assumption and iuendo.

She very well may if she wins for all I know. Still, regardless of the candidate I will still have to see it to believe it no matter who it is though I do hold out more hope that a Democrat would.

No Republican front runner will do it, nor Hillary, I agree.

Biden's been there right along, while His Royal Highness climbed upon an unknown throne.

Everyone with whom I have thus far seriously spoken on this trip agrees, once I broach the subject, that there is likely to be monkey business with the voting equipment in a close general election.

Subsequently, they agree about the importance of a Landslide.

Subsequently, they concede that neither a woman, particularly Hillary Clinton, nor a black man, particularly one named Barack Hussein Obama, are likely to win the general election by a Landslide.

That which is likely, that which is likely...play the odds, People.

I am glad to hear that she has stated this.........ThnX

IMO the power a president wields is far to much for one person..... Especially in regards to foreign policy & the use of force........

If a dem is elected they may very well face the same "temptations" bush did... A willing/passive congress of ones own party can lead to many wrong moves.................

True for the most part..... I am apt to not believe anything she says as you are apt to believe anything she says....

It is a good thing that she has stated this....... It does appear to be voluntary & who knows what it may or may not be subject to once she got there...

You can think my suspicion is merely of her intentions.... I assure you they are not............. If politics & lying are not synonymous they are damn close...lol

This is exactly why I am fed up with the dems right now too. They are just as willing/passive for republicans, there aren't enough of them to do anything and those they do have, just don't care. Unfortunately the representatives we've elected aren't worth a shit. The whole fucking system needs an enema.

Yep!!!!!!!!!

If they are this passive w/ a repub idiot running the world it is scary to think what could occur w/ their own boy or girl in there......

I guess they are afraid of some blowback as being soft on terror or whatever..... I think most americans (rest of the planet) are ready for some soft for a while........

I am................

"spare the lash, spoil the presidency"....... Or something like that...
