Clinton a detriment

The program “20/20” just presented the Kayla Mueller story of how she was held hostage by ISIS and the futile all-out efforts of her parents to save her. The Muellers received absolutely no help from our government to save her. They were even prevented from raising money for her ransom.

Where is government of the people, by the people, for the people? Not surprisingly, in 18 months President Obama has failed to honor his promise to contribute to the Kayla Mueller fund.

Given this situation, how ridiculous is Donald Trump’s statement about ISIS being started (at least fueled) by Obama and Hillary Clinton. As Christians are being beheaded for not denouncing their faith, are we to believe the statements by President Obama and Hillary Clinton about how peace-loving the Muslims are? Is beheading peaceful? Could President Obama’s Muslim background and the Clintons accepting large amounts of money for speaking in Muslim countries affect their opinions?

This with her questionable e-mails, clearly Hillary is a detriment to our deteriorating government and country. Is presumptuous Trump the solution? Where is that strong third-party candidate? Please add hope by joining in prayer for our troubled country.
