Carly Fiorina suggested that she is best equipped to take on the threat of international terrorism and get the job done because she is a woman in the fifth GOP presidential debate of the 2016 campaign that focused on national security and foreign policy

Mrs. Fiorina, the former CEO of Hewlett Packard, said that talking tough is different than “being srong” and dinged her rivals that lacked executive experience,. She also vowed to bring back some of the “warrior class” from past presidential administrations - including former Gens. David Petraeus and Stanley McChystal.

“[Former British Prime Minister] Margaret Thatcher once said if you want something talked about, ask a man, if you want something done, ask a woman,” she said.



Mrs. Fiorina has received rave reviews for her debate performances, but has struggled to capitalize of them on the campaign trail.
