Hillary Clinton’s campaign is vetting James G. Stavridis, a retired four-star Navy admiral who served as the 16th supreme allied commander at NATO, as a possible running mate, according to a person with knowledge of the vetting process.What a perfect selection for Hillary, he's uses government assets to rub elbows with the elites, is careless, uses poor judgement, knows how to destroy trailing documents and is a yes man.
In 2012, Mr. Stavridis was investigated for having improperly used a military aircraft to fly with his wife to an exclusive party in Burgundy, France with winemakers.
He was later cleared of misconduct after a long Pentagon investigation into his travel and expenses, including trips he took with his wife, daughter and mother. The Pentagon inspector general’s report ultimately concluded that he had failed to exercise sufficient oversight, used poor judgement and had made several bookkeeping mistakes including missing records. Stavridis was one of the few senior military commanders to openly support Obama's plans to rapidly withdraw troops from Iraq.
