Susan Fitzpatrick’s July 15 letter to the editor is proof many voters will support Mrs. Clinton regardless the outcome of the Clinton Foundation investigation, the perjury, propensity to lie, the facts of the FBI investigation, lying to Congress, etc. Many will look at her through rose-colored glasses because they think she is the most qualified.

I find very little she has accomplished in her many years as a senator or secretary of state other than naming a post office and a highway. Voting for her because she is a woman makes as much sense as voting for Barack Obama because he’s African-American. It’s time for term limits and eliminate the career politicians.
