Hillary has been acting the part for so long I am not sure that even she know who her real self is, and as for acting the part of a leader she is not a very good actor. Hillary could have used her power base and have backed any number of strong woman who could have run for Pres. but Hillary's ego was too big for that instead of being the "Queen Maker" (as opposed to King Maker) she may have set back the chance of having a great woman President by years.
