Jeb Bush to Target Hillary Clinton in Foreign Policy Speech


Jeb Bush will link Hillary Clinton's time as secretary of state and the Obama administration's actions in the Middle East to the rise and spread of ISIS when he delivers a major foreign policy speech Tuesday night at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.

"Who can seriously argue that America and our friends are safer today than in 2009, when the President and Secretary Clinton - the storied "team of rivals" - took office?" the GOP presidential candidate will say, according to excerpts of the speech released by his campaign.

"Like the president himself, she had opposed the surge…then joined in claiming credit for its success … then stood by as that hard-won victory by American and allied forces was thrown away," Bush will say. "In all her record-setting travels, she stopped by Iraq exactly once."
