ONEBGG - in my opinion fearing her is a bad thing. In order to conquer your enemy you need to understand him or her.

I'll provide you with an example.

Say you were in a dark room. Would you be scared?

I surmise not because you are after all a grown man. However, fear of the unknown is an unsettling experience.

Let us add to the equation you are in a dark room with a hand gun. I would now believe you would feel rather secure and in fact may be a tad cocky or bold.

But in that room lies your enemy - would you be able to defeat it and survive?

If you don't know your enemy I would speculate you would not survive.

The following is a true story - I lived it.

I believe I mentioned to you that I am and have been a life member of the NRA since 1976. Do I believe in the right to bear arms? Yes I do. Do I believe they will provide me with the answer or solution to the puzzle I posed above? Well I once did, but no longer.

During my college days I was introduced to Karate. One of my first tests as a beginning "white" belt was the one I described above. I thought my Dan Wesson (yes with blanks) would protect me, I failed, but I learned a valuable lesson. During the next 5 years I learned to study and understand my opponent. When I took my black belt test, I passed both as the person in the room with the gun vs. the ninja and as the ninja against the person with the gun.

ONEBGG - do not fear Hillary Clinton. In my opinion you need to understand her, what makes her tick, what makes people like her, what makes people believe in her. When you understand those issues you can work against her!

I'm sorry if this sounded too much like a sermon. I suppose my chat on the Rant and Chat board put me in that frame of mind.

Hey - have a nice evening and thanks.
