She’s no Mother Teresa, but a clear favourite

Dear Editor,

I guess I’m unlike Pontius Pilate. Although, he found no fault in the man, he was prepared to give the man over for crucifixion.

I find fault in Hillary Clinton, of course, but I’m not prepared to have her crucified. I have seen how she conducted herself in the recent debates on TV and, although she carries baggage, her positives outweigh her negatives. In the debates, compared to Trump, she convinced me — and I dare say a whole lot of other people, judging by the opinion polls right now — that she, although no Mother Teresa — not even a Beyonce — will be just fine as president for the USA.

Americans are a funny set of people: They will huff and puff and be indignant, but usually they will forgive, if one shows humility and penitence. Clinton is showing that now, whereas Trump presents as more the maximum leader. In his mind he can do no wrong.

So, for me, with the end of the debates, let the games begin and let me see which gladiator is left standing.

George S Garwood

Florida, USA
