Hillary Clinton

(30,058 posts)waited another four years before running for President. He proved me wrong. I found Hillary worked very hard for Bill to become president and immediately presented a health care plan to Congress. She was quiet impressive, strong and smart. She wasn't able to get Congress to buy into the healthcare plan but showed her strength. I was impressed with her strength while living through Bill's infidelities but she remained strong. I could see Chelsea was growing up a well balanced young lady. Hillary ran for senator of NY and won there and again displayed her strength as Senator from NY. She worked across party lines and was able to accomplish minimum wage increases for working Americans through a hard administration and a GOP Congress. She ran for president in 2008 and though she did not win, she stood with grace and poise. Obama ask her to be SOS and she accepted showing the ability to get past the election and served the US very well as SOS. She has been an advocate for women's and children's issues, civil rights issues, a sign of a real Democrat. I am looking forward to a good primary and general election and having Hillary serve as our president.
