New Hampshire. An important state in the upcoming 2016 election, right? So important, you may not be able to afford the luxury of “running out of time” and you may just have to put more hours on the campaign trail clock.
At least, that’s what one logical person would believe. It would be your duty as potential future President of The United States to show up and honor your commitments. Especially when your credibility and authenticity are both walking a tightrope. Right, Mrs. Clinton?

Clinton took to Laconia, New Hampshire on her first stop on the campaign trail. The first event on her itinerary was to address substance abuse and how she would remedy the “quiet epidemic.” The second stop on the itinerary was a trip to The Boys’ And Girls’ Club of The Lakes Region, to which the Democratic hopeful never showed.
The children decorated her “dressing room” Hollywood-style. They even spruced up the bathroom:
I know, you are not the only one who chuckled at the toilet paper. Perhaps she could have pilfered it to wipe some servers? We’ll never know because she didn’t show up! Perhaps she was afraid some of these kiddos would put her in the hot seat? We’ll never know because she never showed up! Representatives in Clinton’s camp stated that she “ran out of time.”

I remember when I was just seven years old. The Three Mile Island incident happened during the spring that I was in second grade. As a result, we canceled our family trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania. I remember my father dictating to me and helping me write a letter of concern to former President, Jimmy Carter. I remember weeks, months (I eventually gave up) waiting to get my letter from the President. When we did our mock Presidential campaign at school in the fall of third grade, I was campaigning hard for Ronald Reagan!
The Boys’ and Girls’ Club’s mission is as follows:
To enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, responsible citizens.
It was reported, according to NH1, is that there were 30 to 35 children ranging in age from 5 to 13 who were anxiously waiting to meet Hillary Clinton. They were writing her letters, drawing her pictures, even coming up with questions to ask her.
“My wish for the new millennium is for all children… to grow up wiser, and stronger and more prosperous for the future than ever before.”
Hillary Clinton
My question to Mrs. Clinton is how do you teach children to reach their full potential as a productive, caring and responsible citizen when you are not caring and responsible and you don’t show up and honor your commitment? It’s the campaign trail. You don’t “run out of time”! You work hard, you (I know this may be a foreign concept) WORK LATE! I get it, these young boys and girls have no voter ballots in their hands but their parents do. Just a thought.
