Hillary Clinton actually said...

"if we don't enhance our diplomatic and development efforts, and move toward more equilibrium, we will not be as successful as we need to be in promoting our foreign policy."

"I really believe, Senator, that this will be a significant step on the way toward putting the State Department on a sounder financial and management footing."

"It matters greatly to me, as it does to the President-elect, these development efforts, these humanitarian commitments by the United States Government, are often the way we are perceived."

"If we're going to move authorities and resources back from the Defense Department to the State Department we have to be able to function effectively and demonstrate our efficiency."
