There is a big difference between being a State Senator/US Senator and President of the USA. The President of the USA gets things done through his cabinet appointments like Justice Department, Department of Defense, Secretary of State, CIA, FBI, Department of Commerce, Ambassadors including to the UN, which must be confirmed by the Senate. The President of the USA also nominates Supreme Court Justices, which must also be confirmed by the Senate. The President of the USA can unilaterally veto legislation, which the Senate can override. The President of the USA is also the Commander and Chief of the USA armed services, and it goes on and on. All the checks and balances, (eg confirmations by the Senate), are wonderful and protect our Democracy and freedom.
Hillary Clinton has seen all of this up close and personal, and has a network of very qualified colleagues from whom she can select her cabinet and other high white house appointments, so who better to have as President in this day and time?
