Why is she even a valid candidate? What merit does she have to become the president of the United States? The only merit she had to get in the senate was being Bill Clinton's old lady.

no longer in 2012. Obama would be a sitting president then (except a tragedy happens contained in the intervening time) and as Ted Kennedy proved with Jimmy Carter, it incredibly is impossible to united statesa. an incumbent president contained in the primaries, even whilst he's screwing up miserably! Hillary will would desire to attend until a minimum of 2016 -- and optimistically until you-comprehend-the place freezes over!

Of course she's a valid candidate. I think she would do a lot to return to more diplomatic relations with our allies. We have lost so much respect in the world, we need someone who can take us down a better path. Playing bully isn't working very well. We become more and more isolated every day, keep it up and everyone in the world will hate us. A President like Hillary would make us easier to talk to and work with. She's got my vote.

You must be of the male gender, and you probably live in the farthest state from New York. Well I am a New York resident and she has done more for us in the past 2 years than any senator we've ever had. She earns "her keep" around here. Why don't you do a little research on her before you try and give her a back woods label of " just Bill Clintons' old lady".

Below are listed SOME of her appointments and accomplishments as Senator of New York. If you would like her accomplishments before she was Senator, those are available too. I don't know if she will be elected, right now I'm not completely sure I'll back her. But, it's ridiculous to say she has no experience. The fact is she has much more experience relevant to being President than George Bush ever thought about having.:
Senator Clinton sits on five Senate Committees with a total of nine subcommittee assignments: the Senate Committee on Armed Services with three subcommittee assignments, on Airland, on Emerging Threats and Capabilities, and on Readiness and Management Support; the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee with three subcommittee assignments on Clean Air, Wetlands, Private Property, and Nuclear Safety, on Fisheries, Wildlife, and Water and on Superfund, Waste Control, and Risk Assessment; the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, with two subcommittee assignments, on Aging and on Children and Families; and the Senate Special Committee on Aging.
Senator Clinton has made homeland security one of her top issues following the September 11 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in downtown New York City, especially regarding obtaining funding for recovery from the attacks and for improving security capabilities in the New York City area.
Senator Clinton worked with Senator Charles Schumer to secure $21.4 billion in funding to assist clean up and recovery, to provide health tracking for first responders and volunteers at Ground Zero, and to create grants for redevelopment. In 2005, Clinton issued two studies that examined the disbursement of federal homeland security funds to local communities and first responders.
As an advocate for her state, Senator Clinton led a bipartisan effort to bring broadband access to rural communities; co-sponsored the 21st Century Nanotechnology Research and Development Act; included language in the Energy Bill to provide tax exempt bonding authority for environmentally conscious construction projects; and introduced an amendment calling for funding of new job creation to repair, renovate and modernize public schools.
In May 2005, Senator Clinton joined forces with her former adversary, House Speaker Newt Gingrich, on a proposal for incremental universal health care.[47] In June, 2005, Senator Clinton united with Senator Bill Frist to push for the modernization of medical records, claiming that thousands of deaths caused by medical mistakes, such as misreading prescriptions, can be prevented by greater reliance on computer technology.
EDIT: LOL Packer? I've been in Colorado when it has snowed in July. Bad example.

Maybe its time for a woman prez, you never know how good or bad she can be unless given a chance. I will always be fond of Ms. Margaret Thatcher, also know as the Iron Lady. Like I said maybe its time??????

I would be surprised if she got the democratic nomination. But then again, I was somewhat surprised last November 7th.

God I hope not........the way Bill sold America out while he was in office. We can't handle another Clinton administration.

no.
She's way too much on the popular "side" of the moment. It doesn't seem like she has a stand for anything except her political career.

No, because she does not know the limits of power. She once said: "we are the President." Scarry.

I seriously hope not. If she's wasn't Bill's wife no one would even talk about her as a Presidental hopefully not.
