when asked if she would work for minimum wage she said "sure" do you believe that for 3 seconds?
i don't believe any other candidate that said they would either, hers just was the one that made me cringe

Seriously: She doesn't need the $400,000 Presidential salary. The country needs the tax hike on those making that much and up, to erase the Dubya Deficit. It worked when her husband tried it (and it was $200,000 then), and it might work when she tries it.
Dubya Deficit... did you see that 14000 mark hit during any other presidents term? the other thing is... if they raise the taxes that much... my boss, who does make a ton o money, wont have that little extra for me anymore... so i cant go spend it at your employers, so they got less money for you too.

I believe it. After all, if she were making minimum wage, she wouldn't be paying the big tax hike she's going to propose.

David Z,
..minimum wage is met for first time workers. If you prove to be a good employee you will not remain a minimum wage earner....so that being said, we are talking about raising the wages for college students, teenagers, etc.
...Democrat have already done this and think it is more important to give teenagers, and 1st time works a break than to address the real problems...
....they just want false
cootos...and many probably 50 % of Amersicans seem to think that we are "moving forward"...// NOT!

Hillary's paycheck is minuscule compared to what the Clinton's have in income coming in every year. I would imagine Hillary would work in the Senate for nothing if that could advantage her (and it wouldn't hurt her much at all). The same is true of Obama and Edwards (although Edwards has no job anyways).

Of course she wont raise the minum wage....Its been done already . It's just gonna take a few years for the changes to take effect. So, naturaly, when the wage goes up....she'll take the credit for it.

No, I dont believe it either. Sure, she would if someone forced her to, but not if she had a choice. Just another way to win more votes. Not working here though.

Yeah, I believe it, She is worth about 100 million dollars. The president's pay is chump change.

If she gets elected, let's call her bluff and actually make her work for minimum wage.
Not that it matters, she probably has an assload of money anyway.

Just lies...the only candidate that hasn't lied is Mike Gravel.

Edwards did. I don't think that they could lie any more... they are multi millionaires, and it doesn't seem like they could do it. I challenge them to prove me wrong.
