Showing Original Post only (View all)BREAKING: Four Star Army Generals DEFIANTLY Make First Presidential Endorsement Of Their Careers [View all]
http://bipartisanreport.com/2016/09/01/breaking-four-star-army-generals-defiantly-make-first-presidential-endorsement-of-their-careers/Two retired four-star U.S. Army generals stepped up on Thursday morning and endorsed the Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton. Although both Gens. David Maddox and Bob Sennewald say they have never endorsed a political candidate before, they both felt compelled to speak out this election cycle.
The two issued a joint statement to the press, saying:
Having each served over 34 years and retired as an Army four-star general, we each have worked closely with Americas strongest allies, both in NATO and throughout Asia.
Our votes have always been private, and neither of us has ever previously lent his name or voice to a presidential candidate. Having studied what is at stake for this country and the alternatives we have now, we see only one viable leader, and will be voting this November for Secretary Hillary Clinton.

Yeah, but Trump has Scott Baio's endorsement. And other top people, really great people.
