jsburbidgeI keep hearing the statement that Hillary Clinton is "the most qualified presidential nominee ever".
Now I grant that she is among the most qualified nominees. But I look at John Quincy Adams (Senator 1803-1808, Secretary of State 1817-1825, and Ambassador to the Netherlands (1794-1797), Russia (1809-1814), and the United Kingdom / Court of St. James (1814-1817). Is it reasonable, even counting Clinton's experience as First Lady, to consider her more qualified?
