I ran the CIA. Now I'm endorsing Clinton. Here's why
DURING a 33-year career at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), I served presidents of both parties - three Republicans and three Democrats. I was at President George W Bush's side when we were attacked on Sept 11; as deputy director of the agency, I was with President Barack Obama when we killed Osama bin Laden in 2011.
I am neither a registered Democrat nor a registered Republican. In my 40 years of voting, I have pulled the lever for candidates of both parties. As a government official, I have always been silent about my preference for president.
No longer. On Nov 8, I will vote for Hillary Clinton. Between now and then, I will do everything I can to ensure that she is elected as our 45th president.
