He wasn't duped. In his book he writes about how embarrassed he was when preparing for that UN presentation. He's a military guy, does what he's told. Seems to have worked for him.

I think socially Hillary is a progressive

I'm just glad she seems to have given up on single payer health care. That would have been a disaster here.

Yeah, she got on board with gay marriage-rights about 26 months ago.

+1. She got on board with gay marriage what, like 2 years ago? That might be being generous.

She's also a politician. Like Obama she did what was politically expedient.

The majority of Americans supported gay marriage years before she did, so this excuse doesn't fly.

Bernie didn't need public approval to take a stand 50 years ago.

In 2012 60-65% of Americans supported legalizing gay marriage. Hillary was among the 35-40% who did not. She is clearly not a socially liberal person, even allowing for political expediency.

She didn't have a position in 2012 because she was SoS.

This. I don't particularly care about the e-mails or Benghazi. However I still haven't forgiven her for the Iraq vote. I firmly believed at the time and continue to believe that she voted for it purely because of the perceived pro-war fervor at the time and the fear of being portrayed as unpatriotic. She knew better (IMO) yet ignored her conscience for political reasons. Shameful.

(Note: I still will vote for her as I believe Trump is a horrendously unqualified candidate and any other vote potentially helps him. Dislike for her as a person is not enough to allow him to attain such a powerful position).

Being Secretary of State does not preclude someone from having an opinion on gay marriage. In 2012, she was against gay marriage. At the same time, the majority of Americans supported it.

I think we should all be concerned about what Russia is doing with the hacking. There is a chance their hacks can swing our elections and put our national security in jeopardy.
