A big thing for me was her championing healthcare in the 90s and her strong support of the ACA this go around.

In 2008 she advocated for health insurance for all and knew the only way for it to be somewhat feasible was with a mandate. We could argue the ACA, but she essentially knew the bill before it became a bill.

Hillary is very intelligent.
