124. it took a "boy" for
HRC to get where she is today. She rode Bill's coattails to positions of power. She hitched her wagon to HIS star power in the 1970s, moving to Arkansas (before they were married) to the shock and dismay of her friends who thought she was throwing away her future. No, she was calculating then and knew HE was going places. His Momma even had her pegged! Part of her much vaunted experience is as First LADY (Arkansas and US, a total of 20 years in that role). And had she not been First Lady, her bid for NY Senate seat (which has launched this POTUS bid) would have been laughable.

She's not the poster child for feminism or for women who have ever had to work THEIR own way up the male chain of power and command, on their own name and merits.
