Her support for the Iraq War is a serious issue, does America want another hawk in the White House?

Well, America seems to be fine with hawks, considering they've elected them since 1952.

Whether America has elected hawks consistently in the past doesn't answer whether America should elect a hawk in 2016.

There is, after all, that whole Cold War thing comprising most of that time period.

why 1952? If you are going to count Ike and Carter as hawks, you have to include Truman and FDR as well.

It's also worth noting that Obama, in 2008, wasn't running as a hawk. America thought that they were getting a dove.
