People always talk about how tested Hillary Clinton is and they’re right. She’s been extensively tested during her career as a politician and she’s failed most of those tests, especially the big ones.

She’s failed on foreign policy—a spike in arms deals to authoritarian regimes while Sec State, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Honduras and continuously pushing Barack Obama’s administration to be more pugnacious including with an unstable, nuclear power in China.

She’s failed on fighting income inequality via unbalanced free-trade policy—NAFTA, South Korea, China, Vietnam, Panama, Peru, Jordan, Chile Colombia, TPP, etc. and it’s important to note she criticized some of these deals while campaigning in 2007–08 only to work to pass them as Sec State—and embracing the special interests who have grossly disproportional influence on our government—millions of dollars in corporate speaking fees, tens of millions of dollars in campaign donations and hundreds of millions of dollars in donations to the Clinton Foundation.

She’s failed on eradicating lack of political transparency and accountability via refusing to release her Wall Street transcripts, maintaining exclusive control over her official correspondence in an effort to dictate what became public knowledge, refusing to disclose all the big-ticket donors to the Clinton Foundation and its subsidiaries, etc.

I would rather vote for someone who is comparably untested like Gary Johnson/Bill Weld or even the almost-certain promise of debilitating gridlock represented by Donald Trump than cast my vote for someone who absolutely guarantees the further entrenchment of the status quo i.e. widening income disparity (disproportionately suffered by the black and hispanic communities), more unnecessary foreign intervention, more influence handed to the deep-pocketed special interests, more unbalanced free-trade agreements, less political transparency and less political accountability.
