WHY I LIKE HILLARY
HRC has a long and distinguished history of loyalty, service to and accomplishments within the Democratic Party. She helped build the Democratic party at the state and local level over the last 35 years, held many positions and offices within and for the party and, in every role, she served with distinction and honor.
HRC has paid her dues to the Democratic Party and she deserves the support of the Democratic Party in 2016. She has been involved in leadership positions in the Democratic Party since the 1973 Watergate investigation of Richard Nixon. She played a central role in the health care reform push of 1993 which laid the groundwork for the creation of ObamaCare in 2010. In 1997 and 1999, she played a leading role in advocating the creation of the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), the Adoption and Safe Families Act and the Foster Care Independence Act. She was the first and only First Lady to run for, and obtain, public office while still First Lady. Kenneth W. Starr drug her into the Whitewater Investigation where her marriage, professional life and political career were scrutinized under a microscope. She has long scared Republicans, not unlike her husband and the current president, in a way that is paranoid and irrational. At 22 years of age she was also the first ever student commencement speaker at prestigious Wellesley College where her commencement speech made the cover of Time magazine. It was a unique honor; HRC’s own classmates at Wellesley asked the school administration for Hillary to address them on their graduation day.
Hillary is a distinguished graduate of Yale Law School, former Director of the Arkansas Legal Aid Clinic, former civil litigation attorney and former Law Professor at the University of Arkansas School of Law. She is the former First Lady of Arkansas and the former First Lady of the United States, and the first FLOTUS in U.S. history to hold a postgraduate degree. She is the first ex-FLOTUS in U.S. history to be elected to the United States Senate. She was elected by the State of New York to serve two terms in the United States Senate. She is a former U.S. Secretary of State, only the third female ever to serve in that position. The first female ever appointed to that office, Madeline Albright, was appointed by Hillary’s husband upon her advice, recommendation and “urging,” according to former President Bill Clinton. Clinton won the Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album in 1997 for “It Takes a Village.” She is a published author. She is a self proclaimed Pantsuit Aficionado. She married a man named Bill, who plays the saxophone. She was her husband’s most senior and instrumental advisor without portfolio while he served as the nation's 42nd president. She took on many of the most difficult assignments of his administration. She is the most qualified candidate for the presidency in the last 150 years.
The list of her accomplishments is so prohibitively long it will not fit within the limited confines of this article. But by all means go see “Hillary Clinton’s Awards and Accomplishments” in Wikipedia.
Hillary has something no other presidential candidate possesses: she will have the support and advice of the two most successful, prolific and iconic, former Democratic presidents, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, since FDR and the “New Deal.” As successful as Barack Obama has been with liberals particularly in his second term, Bill Clinton left office, (1) with the highest approval rating of any president in modern time, (2) as the only president to completely eliminate the deficit and leave his successor a surplus in modern times, and (3) the only president to create a net 23 million new jobs in 8 years in American history. Hillary has the support of the former president and the current president. That is a big plus in my book.
I am proud of her and her accomplishments. Secretary of State, Senator from New York, First Lady (she made the latter into a substantive, not merely a figurehead, role).
Throughout her lifetime no one has done more to champion the cause of women’s rights around the world than Hillary Clinton. She has personally delivered important speeches on the subject all over the world but her three best known were delivered to the United Nations General Assembly meeting on the issue of human rights, in New York City; in Beijing, China, to the Chinese people; and, before the International Commission on Human Rights. One of my all-time favorite Hillary Clinton lectures on women’s reproductive rights was in an exchange before a Republican congressional committee member while she was testifying as Secretary of State. It's on YouTube and it's simply wonderful; she made the Republican questioner wish he had never asked the question that triggered her brilliant, in your face, tongue lashing. I was proud for her and I was proud for the cause she was championing.
It's not necessary to be against anybody to be FOR Hillary Clinton. In every position in which Hillary has served this country, or the Democratic Party, she has done so with honor and distinction. Who else can you say that about?
