I do. Some little boy asked a question about Hillary Clinton's political experience and he seemed to think being Senator of New York was all she had. Her whole career has been in politics, so I think she has the experience.
I'm a Ron Paul supporter by the way.

It depends on what you do as first lady. Smiling and waving is not political experience. Getting involved with the process, advising the President, and coming up with ideas is experience. All first ladies are not created equal, that is for certain.

Sure, it's experience but her time in the White House rather tainted her image with the American people. We all remember the health care fiasco. Hilary has a lot of people that fear and hate her right now and a lot more that would come out on general election day for no other purpose than to vote against her. There are murmurings in the Democrat party that she is un-electable.

No.
Lets talk about the failed health care initiative she was in charge of. I would say her actions as first lady show just how unqualified she is as a candidate.
For you people who talk about how important she was as Bills advisor/confidant, how was it he was able to stick a cigar into Monica in the Oval Office if Hillary was so "on top of things?" Sorry, she is the wrong choice at the wrong time.
Its amazing to me, the Democrats could win this election with anyone as candidate, but they are going to put forth the one person that has no chance of winning. Just genius.

i do no longer think of "journey" quite concerns as much as human beings desire it to (a number of our suitable presidents, T. Roosevelt and Kennedy, did no longer have plenty). Hillary's genuine political journey has been related to the comparable as Obama's and neither have journey in an government place of work (except you count sort Hillary's disastrous managing of well being care for the time of invoice's presidency). If we will vote to have a popular in heritage, i think of having a woman president in u.s. may well be large yet given the plenty extra intense functionality racial politics have performed in our heritage, a black president who can attain familiar help may well be plenty extra acceptable for the rustic. the suitable Hillary can wish for is prevailing over a reasonable majority of Democrats, being approximately as polarizing a parent for the democrats as Bush has for the Republicans. I additionally do no longer purchase that "i can face up to assaults extra acceptable by using fact i've got been criticized plenty" line-it in simple terms potential you're much less commonplace.

Yes, of course. Just as being a welfare mom trying to figure out to get benefits counts as a political experience.
Life, in general, has a way of politicizing our consciousness in many ways.
And remember that others have run for president with far less paper credentials than Hillary Clinton.

Somewhat... I mean if you think about it, its not much. Hillary has more experience with being a senator. I mean a towel boy who's been with the NBA 50 years isnt gonna be qualified for the hall of fame. Its hand on experience that that counts.

In her case, yes, but then you have to evaluate the results and quality of that experience and you come up with things like her disasterous health plan (I'm not against a health plan, but I READ hers and micromanagement into paralysis was the least of it) and NAFTA.
Not a good record to my mind.
She would have to run against someone I consider truly dangerous to the country before I would vote for her.

It maybe experience but is it the experience we are looking for. Continue with another term as senator or try running for Governor of New York then get back to me Hilary

Yes, because the President's spouse has contributed to their political success or failure. Whether they are out front or behind the scenes. Remembering the great first ladies of the twentieth century and their influences on our country like Jackie Kennedy & Eleanor Roosevelt .

Being first lady enabled her to see how to make those back door deals to keep money coming while giving away the welfare of the people. She also learned how to keep out of Billy's way when he was nailing those so called lady Friends. Guess she felt it was better to have him abuse others instead of her.
