President Obama flew Hillary Clinton to Charlotte, N.C., Tuesday to tell an enthusiastic crowd that no one has ever been more qualified to occupy the Oval Office — not even him, apparently.

He might have a point. Though both spent a little bit of time in the waiting room they call the Senate, Clinton went on to serve as secretary of state, where she was responsible for making life-or-death decisions that neither had faced before. You don’t know what it’s like to make life or death decisions until you’ve done it, Obama testified.

Rep. Marsha Blackburn chimed in to agree that Clinton certainly does have experience when it comes to making life-or-death decisions. Clinton failed miserably, but that still counts as experience, right?
President Obama talking about “life and death” decisions at HRC event. Hillary does have experience: #Benghazi.

Yes, whether it's #Benghazi or her rabid support of @Ppact, @HillaryClinton always chooses death— Tall Man Short Hair (@TallManShort) July 5, 2016
President Obama took a shot at Donald Trump, whose experience consists of sitting behind a desk and tweeting.

If Obama is correct..and people who tweet can't make life or death decisions, then Hillary was tweeting the night 4 people died in #Benghazi

But even the Republicans on the House Select Committee on Benghazi cleared Clinton of all wrongdoing in connection with those deaths in Benghazi (at least that’s how CNN reported it), just as the FBI cleared her of all wrongdoing in connection with her extremely careless mishandling of classified materials (just ask Sally Kohn).
Using that logic, it’s a wonder that President Obama didn’t go on and on about Clinton’s wealth of experience gained as secretary of state.
Issues Obama didn't directly touch on about Hillary's experience in campaign speech: Iran deal, Israeli-Palestinian peace process, Egypt
