at getting extra visability early on for a presidential race? Or do you think she or they really want to wade through the already 21,000 plus responses to help them formulate an idea of their own?

Both.. they want folks to get out and vote. Do your research on all those that are running for this seat. They all have a dark side about them, things they want hidden in the closet... but they do have some good points... but... don't let others influence your decision. You will know in your heart which one will be the best ambassador to the people of the United States of America.

What inside information do you have that the rest of us don't that tells you Hillary has no knowledge or interest in the answers to her YA question? Please, do tell. I do think her staff will weed through the answers and present the best of the bunch to her. That's generally the way something like this would have to be handled. How do I know that? I was an office manager for many years and you learn to delegate to the advantage of everyone. Of course it's early visibility, she's a politican running for office. How is that out of line? They already have some terrific ideas for health care, and that includes Democrats and Republicans who are talking in a bipartisan manner about this issue. Why is it so bad that she might be interested in what every day people really think and is smart enough to use a public forum like YA to find out? In addition, having followed Hillary's career, it's clear she's not going to let anything get out there publicly like this with her name on it without prior knowledge. If she didn't approve of this it wouldn't be on YA.

I believe it is purely political. I wish I could believe that Hillary cared about average Americans and their health care because we do need to reform the system. However, what I remember from the Clinton's previous attempt to try and ram socialized medicine down our throats was that they created a panel with no medical or insurance personnel which was aimed at reforming health care for all. The arrogance of this move speaks for itself and is a big part of the reason why that plan was D.O.A.. I have seen no change in Mrs. Clinton in the intervening years which would lead me to believe that she is any less arrogant and self important now than she was then.

Good point, I would hope she would care to have someone read the responses, if she requested an answer.
As much as I didn't a lot of her husbands time in office
I have to give them credit for TRYING to come up with a health care answer. How unfair is it in this country to work your butt
off and then have a medical emergency that wipes you out unless you are insured. We pay through our noses being self employed, and know lots of others who can't afford any at all.
someone must have an answer.....I pray so.

I think both. I think they want to get visability and also want to see what people have to say. Many times the best ideas come from common folk who live everyday in the trenches. Many companies employ this type of brainstorming also.

I think its aimed at making yahoo answers look "cool" cause they have celebrities. You will notice there is a question from like September that the hilary staff probably wrote. Does hilary even know about yahoo answers no of course not.
But the point is theres like a celebrity question a week.

I think its plain ole' political posturing... We already know what her health care plan is-It even scared her hubby !!! This will be all over the news , the media will be salivating all over themselves while reporting how Hillary turns to the voice of the people... Give me a break....

I think its both. Of course its for exposure but its also a good way to get some unvarnished input from the masses.
come on...

Sure its aimed, she could care less about people's problems with health insurance, her and Bill are set for life, you really think she cares about anything but power.

What do you think?
Was it a coincidence that Leo sked a question right when a movie came out?
Or that Al Gore asked when HIS came out?
I don't think so.
