Presidential Candidates Debates

The opening presidential debate made it quite clear which of the three candidates is the most qualified.

Gov. Clinton looked the most presidential, talked the most presidential and acted the most presidential.

Clinton addressed questions directly and specifically. He made very clear where his stand differs from those of his opponents and was the most articulate of the three in describing his beliefs and plans.

He was so secure thinking on his feet that he needed only an occasional reference to notes.

With the one caring aside which he voiced with respect to his values and family values, he stayed focused on the issues and he had no difficulty in keeping within the minute or two allotted him.

In short, he was brilliant. He’s the clear choice for the leader we need at this critical point of our history: committed, intelligent, organized, professional. He is the only one of the three we can trust to deliver.
