Orlando Sun-Sentinel endorsement: Hillary Clinton

The negatives are there, and many are justified.

What's also true, however, is that though Clinton is flawed, she's also as qualified a candidate for the White House as we've seen in years. The breadth of her experience and her accomplishments are why the Sun Sentinel Editorial Board recommends voters choose her over Bernie Sanders in Florida's Democratic primary on March 15.

Hillary Clinton brings assets we've seen too little of this primary season — steadiness and experience at the highest levels of government.

Her resume is impressive. She spent eight years in the U.S. Senate, representing New York from 2001 to 2009. She followed that with four years as secretary of state. Though she ran unsuccessfully for the Democratic nomination in 2008, she was in the White House for eight years working on policy while her husband was president.

She was also endorsed by both senators, the governor, and almost all state party poohbahs.

Bernie won Minnesota 62% - 38%.

It's no surprise that the right-wing corporatist media is going whole hog for Mrs. Clinton. She's bought and paid for. They don't want to see their investment go down the drain.

The Sun-Sentinel is the paper in Broward County.

The birdcage liner in Orlando is the Sentinel.
