There is a lot at stake in the upcoming presidential election.

America needs a president who can navigate a complex world with intelligence, confidence and a steady hand. Hillary Clinton has those qualities — along with decades of experience in government service, both national and international.

She has made mistakes, but I would challenge anyone to find any major politician who has not made mistakes.

The importance of her positive attributes cannot be overstated when her opponent is a chronic liar, a reckless bully completely inexperienced in the ways of government, with a hair-trigger temper that could put this country in grave danger.

America needs a strong, thoughtful president who will keep the country stable, moving forward, in concert with allies.

Hillary Clinton is the best choice for voters in November.
