1. What a puff piece! Full of innuendo and inference and missing huge facts, such as her being

1. a Goldwater girl in 1964.
2. Heavily involved with the Gaia movement in 1968-9.
3. Her early advocacy and claimed co-founding thinker for the Globalism movement in 1970.

...to name but 3 missing facts.

2. wow, I would love to hear more! - esp 2&3

nt


I met Barry Goldwater when i was around 9 or 10. He was actually really nice.

He showed me his ham shack. (in what must have been his summer place, because this wasn't in Arizona)

I didn't realize who he was, really.

4. Stems from a 1970 conversation==>debate I had with Hillary for 1-1/2 hours in Chicago.

6. Do you have any kind of recording of it?

or transcript?

is it online anywhere.

And what was "globalism" to her?

this is particularly interesting to me because globalization/neoliberalism still seems to me to make less sense than I would like to see it making given it seems to be our country's secret state religion these days.

Bill Clinton is probably the one American most associated with neoliberalism.

7. Sorry, only in my recollection & maybe that of the 20-30 people who were present at the time.

As in 2008, I am trying to refrain from providing the full details of this as I dread it coming out and sinking the Democratic nominee should she be that in the GE.

3. Goldwater was nice

even JFK liked him. How the Republican party has fallen. Well, the Democrats have fallen pretty far too

5. I assume you are referring to Hillary's change in political leanings while she was a teenager.

During the 60's and 70's the political landscape was in complete tumult. Not only was the country still recoiling from the assassination of JFK, we had the Cold War, the Civil Rights movement, the Women's Rights Movement and opposition to the Vietnam war. Young people were becoming more and more involved in politics and making their voices heard. They were also breaking away from the political viewpoints of their parents and forming their own opinions, which were oftentimes at the opposite end of the political scale.

What I'm getting at is that most of us during that era went through some serious introspection and many of us did a complete turnaround in our attitudes on the issues and no longer blindly followed the lead of our parents, teachers or other authority figures. It didn't always happen overnight or in a moment of blindingly clear revelations. It was a period of discovery and self reflection in determining which issues were of most importance to you and how you were going to work to achieve what you felt was best.

8. Both parties at the same time VP pick would be?
