95 Retired Generals, Admirals Endorse Clinton

A group of 95 retired generals and admirals have endorsed Hillary Clinton's presidential bid, her campaign announced Wednesday.

"I feel I have a moral imperative to come forth and endorse Secretary Hillary Clinton for President," General Lloyd "Fig" Newton, America's first African-American Thunderbird pilot, said in a statement that accompanied the list of names. "Hillary Clinton is the only candidate that has the experience, temperament, critical thinking and level-headed leadership to keep America safe and our partnerships strong. She has my vote in November."

The list comes a day after 88 retired generals and admirals signed a letter backing Donald Trump, praising him as the candidate who can reverse the "hollowing out" of the U.S. military. And it comes on the day both candidates will participate in the Commander-in-Chief Forum, simulcast on NBC and MSNBC.
