Pelosi on Hillary Clinton for president in 2016: 'I hope she goes'

Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., shares her thoughts the mass shooting in Newtown and the fiscal cliff negotiations on Capitol Hill.

 

Hillary Clinton’s possible 2016 bid for the presidency won one high-profile supporter Tuesday in House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.

Pelosi said during an interview with NBC’s Andrea Mitchell that she hoped Clinton – who will retire soon from her job as secretary of state – would make another bid for the presidency in four years.

“Wouldn’t that be exiting?” Pelosi said. “I hope she goes – why wouldn’t she?”

“She could be president of the United States, and she would be great,” added Pelosi, who was speaker of the House and stayed neutral during the 2008 primary between Clinton and Barack Obama. “And if she decided to run, I think she would win. She would go into the White House as well prepared, or better prepared, than almost anybody who has served in that office in a very long time.”

Pelosi...one of the most disliked and dishonest woman in politics. As for Hillary....how convenient that she has a concussion and cannot testify about the circumstances regarding Benghazi. She too has tainted her image with lies. Can't be trusted to be honest!

She would be a perfect POTUS. Whenever it came to testify or things of that nature, she can fake a concussion. Nothing like have another multi-millionaire 1%'er as POTUS. Oh thats right, Democrat multi-millionaires can't be 1%'ers. Thats only reserved for Republicans.

      We've had enough of stylish Presidents. Obama is the affirmative action POTUS, we don't need the bra-burning man/women POTUS next. Old White guy for POTUS 2016! It's worked well for 200+ years.

        Her concussion should prevent her from serving. It prevents her from telling the truth about Benghazi.

          Hillary in 2016? Why not? I don't see any Democrat super star coming up to replace Obama and certainly the Republicans haven't shown anyone who could possibly do the job. The last one they had was Bob Dole and he lost.

          Hillary is popular and capable so I would support her and believe many others would too.

          I think Hillary would make a wonderful president, but age is her only obstacle, she will be near 70. She is a smart, intelletual woman and a person whom I have always liked.

          Hay, no shocker here that dim whit Nancy P would make such a statement. Now let's see, just what is the latest stinker old Hillery pulled. Well how about the fake illness prank pulled just before having to testify on the Benghazi disaster? Now Hillery, "claims" to have had a stomach bug, was dehydrated and passed out hitting her head causing a concussion. Now here is the real corker in that one would think someone of Hillery's advanced age under the circumstances would have been rushed to a hospital for medical care and observation????? Oh pooh stinky.....I smell another Hillery cover up....and by the way, where again was the "award winning" investigative press looking at the suspect timing of Hillery's illness and why she was not hospitalized??? Wow do you think Bill made her chicken soup and held her hand???? And to think these fools are our national leaders......wake up America!!!!

          Hillary is a doormat.

          When her husband was having oral sex in the oval office and lying to the country and world about it, SHE DID NOTHING

          When her husband was impeached, SHE DID NOTHING

          Then In January 2001, on the day before leaving office, Clinton agreed to a five-year suspension of his Arkansas law license as part of an agreement with the independent counsel to end the investigation. Based on this suspension, Clinton was automatically suspended from the United States Supreme Court bar, from which he then chose to resign. Again THE DOORMAT WAS SILENT.

          Time for retirement away from Former US Embarrassment Bill Clinton
