Everyone claims Obama is inexperienced but what true accomplishments has Hillary done?

Question

Published in the New York Post on March 6, 2007.

When pressed about her qualifications for the presidency, Sen. Hillary Clinton falls back on her husband's domestic-policy record - claiming credit for the good economy, welfare reform and the balanced budget.

It's a very fine record, indeed - but it's Bill's, not Hillary's.

Hillary was the moving force behind the Clinton presidency in 1993 and 1994 - with primary responsibility for the disastrous health-care plan, which helped hand Congress to the Republicans. After that, her husband sent her into a polite exile.

Hillary stopped attending political strategy meetings, traveled extensively and wrote "It Takes a Village." She was most emphatically not part of the splendid record President Clinton amassed in the 1995-96 period. Bill indirectly confirms this by failing to credit Hillary with much in his memoirs.

Answer 1

Both have done a bunch of talking but accomplished nothing.

Answer 2

Neither one would make a good president at this time.
Lack of experience is one thing,moral toughness and trust factors are more important to me.
We are in the early stages of what may become WW3.
Radical Islam is terrorising many countries,supported by Iran and Syria and assorted groups worldwide.
Not facing off with them and defeating their goals at this time will embolden and nuture the violence until full blown WAR erupts in all areas with Islamic populations.
Islamists everywhere are being told that all their problems are the fault of the Jews and Christians,NOT the fault of their leaders.
The next decade is going to demand a strong and in cases firm hand on the reins of government.
Indecision or a "soft" stance will bring about escalation of terrorism and eventual wide spread warfare,possibly with nuclear weapons.
I see no sign of either of these candidates having the Qualities which will be called for.

Answer 3

When Bill Clinton was president it wasn't him making the decisions it was Hillary doing his job while he was out having
fun and then lying about it! Hillary will be a better President than her so called husband ever was. Honestly this country needs to get SOMEONE else in office! After that bush won't
be able to treat a soldier like a 20 cent toy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 4

She has done nothing, and will never do anything but try to further her career...why do you think Bill and her are still married and Billy Bob did not resign?

Answer 5

You're kidding me right? Have you tried reading about her? She started in polotics back in 1964 when she first volunteered in Goldwater's presidential campaign. In 1971 she worked on one of Mondales's subcomittees. In 1972 she campaigned for McGovern. The graduated from Yale Law in 1973. She served as staff attorney for the Children's Defense Fund and as a consultant to the Carnegie Council on Children. She was a member of the impeachment inquiry staff advising the House Committee on the Judiciary during the Watergate scandal. She joined the Rose Law Firm in 1976, specializing in intellectual property while working pro bono in child advocacy. In 1978, President Jimmy Carter appointed her to the board of the Legal Services Corporation. She continued to practice law with the Rose Law Firm while she was First Lady of Arkansas. She was twice named by the National Law Journal as one of the 100 most influential lawyers in America, in 1988 and in 1991. Clinton had co-founded the Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families, and served on the boards of the Arkansas Children's Hospital Legal Services and the Children's Defense Fund. She was the first First Lady to hold a post-graduate degree and to have her own professional career. She is regarded as the most openly empowered presidential wife in American history since Eleanor Roosevelt. As First Lady, Clinton supported women's rights and children's welfare. She initiated the Children's Health Insurance Program in 1997, a federal effort that provided state support for children whose parents were unable to provide them with health coverage. She successfully sought to increase research funding for prostate cancer and childhood asthma at the National Institutes of Health. The First Lady worked to investigate reports of an illness that affected veterans of the Gulf War, which became known as the Gulf War syndrome. In 1997, she initiated and shepherded the Adoption and Safe Families Act. Together with Attorney General Janet Reno, Clinton helped create the Office on Violence Against Women at the Department of Justice.

In the Senate, Clinton sits on five committees with nine subcommittee assignments in all: the Committee on Armed Services, with three subcommittee assignments on Airland, on Emerging Threats and Capabilities, and on Readiness and Management Support; the Committee on Environment and Public Works, 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 Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, with two subcommittee assignments on Aging and on Children and Families; and the Special Committee on Aging.

I could go on or you could spend some time and find out for yourself without basing it on just whether you like her or not.

Insert anybody on the planet's name in there in place of hers and you will find that it's pretty impressive.
