I'm more concerned that Hillary lacks the ethics , competence and judgment to be president. If she wasn't married to Bill Clinton we wouldn't even know who the hell she was

Before she even met Bill she had distinguished records at Wellesley and Yale Law. To claim her success is only because of her husband is pretty sexist...

"Distinguished records" as a student are nice, though very limited, successes. I think Buck was referring to success in the "real world," not the cloistered environment of a student's record in academe.

Most ambitious people I know who did exceptionally well in school ended up doing well as adults...and Clinton set a very aggressive trajectory.

funny I thought Conservatives where champions of the successful

The Bushes , Mitt Romney and now the Donald they support But the Clintons with little or no daddy money to start have made money Conservatives just say they stole it or sold influence .. WOW with out anything to support the claim its typical Conservative play book facts dont matter carries more weight .

you just cant make this stuff up like they do they just regurgitate the same line over and over and over

Also pretty true which is exactly why she is the poor representation of someone breaking the glass ceiling .
Do you think they would be worth 200 million without "public service "?
I have to say, how they pull that one off and havent been put in jail yet is one incredible achievement .
