OHIO—(ENEWSPF)–August 31, 2016. In a speech at the American Legion Convention in Cincinnati on Wednesday, Hillary Clinton reaffirmed that America is an exceptional nation, and that America’s greatness requires our diplomatic and military leadership in the world. A crucial part of maintaining that leadership and protecting our men and women in uniform, Clinton said, is maintaining our alliances with and commitments to other nations. Clinton argued that Donald Trump would walk away from our allies, has run a divisive campaign, insults our military, and is temperamentally unfit to be president. Clinton said, “part of what makes America an exceptional nation is that we’re also an indispensable nation. The indispensable nation. People all over the world look to us and follow our lead. You may wonder how anyone could disagree. But my opponent has said very clearly that he thinks American exceptionalism is insulting to the rest of the world. In fact, when Vladimir Putin of all people criticized American exceptionalism, my opponent agreed with him.”
