**Impact- Hillary Good

2NC/1NR Impact- Hillary Good- ANSWERS TO: Hillary Bad- Iran

Hillary Clinton is the only candidate who can preserve negotiations with Iran


Real Clear Politics 2015, “Earnest: Hillary Clinton's Role In Bringing Iranians To Negotiating Table "A Testament To Her Diplomatic Skill" March 20 http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2015/03/20/earnest_hillary_clintons_role_in_bringing_iranians_to_negotiating_table_a_testament_to_her_diplomatic_skill.html

At Friday's White House press briefing, White House press secretary Josh Earnest praised former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for helping to bring the Iranians to the negotiating table, calling it a "testament to her diplomatic skill."¶ Earnest was answering a question from FOX News' Ed Henry regarding what role Secretary Clinton had in getting these negotiations started.¶ JOSH EARNEST: Secretary Clinton did the difficult diplomatic work that was required to get some of our allies in the region to cooperate with the broader international community to prevent the importation, or at least limit the importation of Iranian oil, and that is what maximized the pressure that has compelled the Iranians to come to the negotiating table. I think that is a testament to her diplomatic skill that we have reached a point that we have convened serious negotiations like the ones that are currently taking place.


2NC/1NR Impact- Hillary Good- ANSWERS TO: Hillary Bad- Economy

Hillary Clinton is good for the economy- she boosts the middle class tax base


CNN 2015- “Hillary Clinton's economic pitch: Americans 'need a raise'” http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/12/politics/hillary-clinton-economic-policy-speech/, July 12

Hillary Clinton pledged to rein in out-of-control financial institutions on Monday as she detailed an economic vision that she said would achieve the "defining economic challenge of our life" of lifting middle-class wages.¶ The Democratic front-runner lambasted a marketplace she said is too obsessed with second-to-second stock trading and quarterly earnings reports, at the expense of long-term growth and stability in a speech that was heavy on politics and light on policy specifics.¶ Clinton even took a veiled shot at President Barack Obama's administration for failing to prosecute individuals for banking crimes in the wake of the 2008 economic downturn.¶ She accused hedge funds and high-frequency traders of "criminal behavior," and promised to "prosecute individuals as well as firms" when they break the law -- which liberals have long clamored for, but the Obama administration largely didn't do. She also said she'd seek to expand on the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial regulatory law designed to prevent future economic crises.¶ "'Too big to fail' is still too big a problem," Clinton said.¶ The assault on Wall Street pleased liberal groups that have often criticized Clinton. "There were notable overtures to the Elizabeth Warren wing of American politics, and nothing major for the dwindling DLC corporate crowd -- which shows that Clinton sees a rising economic populist tide in our politics and wants to be part of it," said Adam Green, a founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee who has at times been a thorn in Clinton's side.¶ Republican National Committee spokeswoman Allison Moore, meanwhile, hit Clinton for failing to explain how she'd pay for the policies she's championing. Moore said that "it's pretty clear: she will have to raise taxes on American families. If she doesn't raise taxes, then she will have to break her promises.¶ "That's Clintonomics: tax hikes or broken promises," she said. "There's no way around it."¶ Held at The New School, a university in lower Manhattan, the event was billed as Clinton's first major economic policy speech. She touched a long list of items she'll expound on in additional events over the summer, and included several sections -- including the attack on Wall Street -- that could help blunt the progressive dissatisfaction demonstrated in Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders' rapid rise up the Democratic primary polls.¶ But Clinton didn't mention Sanders at all -- and instead, she went after her potential Republican rivals.

Economic decline does not cause war- the economy is resilient


Drezner 2014 (Daniel W., professor of international politics at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. His latest book, The System Worked: How the World Stopped Another Great Depression, is just out from Oxford University Press; “The Uses of Being Wrong” http://www.lexisnexis.com.proxy2.cl.msu.edu/lnacui2api/results/docview/docview.do?docLinkInd=true&risb=21_T20276111299&format=GNBFI&sort=DATE,D,H&startDocNo=1&resultsUrlKey=29_T20276111283&cisb=22_T20276111282&treeMax=true&treeWidth=0&csi=171267&docNo=1)

My new book has an odd intellectual provenance-it starts with me being wrong. Back in the fall of 2008, I was convinced that the open global economic order, centered on the unfettered cross-border exchange of goods, services, and ideas, was about to collapse as quickly as Lehman Brothers. A half-decade later, the closer I looked at the performance of the system of global economic governance, the clearer it became that the meltdown I had expected had not come to pass. Though the advanced industrialized economies suffered prolonged economic slowdowns, at the global level there was no great surge in trade protectionism, no immediate clampdown on capital flows, and, most surprisingly, no real rejection of neoliberal economic principles. Given what has normally transpired after severe economic shocks, this outcome was damn near miraculous. Nevertheless, most observers have remained deeply pessimistic about the functioning of the global political economy. Indeed, scholarly books with titles like No One's World: The West, The Rising Rest, and the Coming Global Turn and The End of American World Order have come to a conclusion the opposite of mine. Now I'm trying to understand how I got the crisis so wrong back in 2008, and why so many scholars continue to be wrong now.
