Secretary of State Hillary Clinton this past week made the announcement that she won't be serving in a second Obama term if he happens to win re-election this November. Clinton also declared that she won't be serving a second term as Secretary of State if Obama wins this November. She said she is enjoying every moment of her 20 year political career. There had been rumors that she might replace Vice-President Joe Biden as President Obama's running mate this year. "I have made it clear that I will certainly stay on until the president nominates someone and that transition can occur," she stated at a town hall meeting. "But I think after 20 years, and it will be 20 years, of being on the high wire of American politics and all of the challenges that come with that, it would be probably a good idea to just find out how tired I am." According to ABC News, Clinton hasn't stated what she would do once she retired from public life. Once her tenure ends as Secretary of State, it will mark the end of the 20 year dynasty of the Clintons--Bill Clinton's two terms as president, Hillary's eight years as Senator and four years as Secretary of State.
I can imagine some people are stunned when Clinton supposedly made the announcement last year she was going to depart from public life. I heard some people say that they thought Hillary would challenge Obama in this year's Democratic primary due to Obama's low approval ratings. I didn't think she would challenge Obama. What's the deal with Hillary? Does she have health or some type of personal issue in her life? Probably not. Anyone that's paid attention to the political scene for the last decade or better know that Hillary had presidential aspirations. She ran a spirited campaign for the party's nomination for president in 2008. Personally, I still think she would like to be president of the United States. However, her stock appears to have fallen with the Democratic Party since the 2008 presidential election. She's no longer the most-wanted candidate in the Democratic Party, or at least that's the way it appears. President Obama was the new kid on the block in 2008, so the primary was "rigged" in favor of Obama. I personally believe it was set up for Obama to win the Democratic primary in 2008.
I don't have any way to prove this but I'm going to give you my point of view in this scenario. I believe the forces of Nimrod, whomever the characters are, don't have any place for Hillary now in politics. Could that change in a few years? Possibly but she's definitely not on the most-wanted list, at least for now. For whatever reason the forces of Nimrod wanted Obama to be the one to assume the office of the presidency. I believe it was set up for Obama to be president with the crumbling economy that year and the support of the liberal media such as MSNBC, for example. Will Hillary fade into obscurity? I'm sure we will hear from her from time to time. All I can surmise is that for the time being the powers-that-be don't need her in the political arena. Hillary has probably served her useful in politics and now it's time for a younger generation to make their mark.
