Hillary touts foreign policy experience in Cincy speech to veterans

"Hillary Clinton laid out her foreign policy plan to veterans here Wednesday and continued to
characterize her Republican opponent as a candidate lacking the temperament to lead the country’s military.
Addressing the American Legion National Convention, Clinton touted her experience as secretary of state and gave insight into what happened the night of May 2, 2011, when a team of Navy SEALs killed Osama bin Laden.
I was holding my breath for the entire operation,” she said of seeing U.S. troops breach the compound, return fire initiated by bin Laden’s body guards, and find and kill the leader of Al-Qaeda. “Every second counted.”
You don’t build a coalition by insulting our friends or acting like a loose cannon,” she said. “You do it by putting in the slow, hard work of building relationships. Getting countries working together was my job every day as your secretary of state. It’s more than a photo op. It takes consistency and reliability." DaytonDailyNews
