... weren't buying the closing racial equality remarks -- sample commentary from the readership:

“… it denies the Clintons the genuine credit they are owed for making Mr Obama's victory possible...”
Isn’t it interesting that no matter what an African American achieves, whites want to take credit for it? Yes sir, this elegant, articulate, well-educated black man could only get where he got to on the back of a white narcissist from Arkansas and his equally self-absorbed wife. Is that what you’d have us believe?
Sadly, this article merely captures the fact that reporter Shipman has swallowed the Clinton myth hook, line and sinker. Even sophisticated Telegraph journalists just don’t understand the reality of (a) race relations in America today; or (b) the Clinton Mythology Factory, which runs 24/7. To cover the Clintons and their “first Black president” spin-machine, you’ve got to have a far healthier dose of skepticism then evidenced here. And when a Democrat talks about Bill’s and Hillary’s “life work” as racial equality ... Ha! That’s just priceless! The only life-work those two have ever known is themselves. History will record them as the perfect emblems of the Age of Narcissism, otherwise known as the Baby Boom Era.

With all Hillary's 'I have the experience', She obviously didn't have enough to organise a successful campaign!.

Hillary Clinton exposed her true self in her claim that she was under sniper fire during her Bosnia trip when all along she knew that it was not true. Without the evidence of the video news clip she would have maintained that stated position of hers. If she can blatantly tell a lie while she is not in yet in power, what will stop her from doing it again when she attains the power of being the President of the United States.

In 1990, when Clinton had been Arkansas
Governor for 10 years, The U.S. Supreme Court
decided, in Clinton v. Jeffers, that the
government of Arkansas, and the Governor in
particular, had systematically deprived black
people of their voting rights. Google it, read it
for yourself- Clinton's claim as the "first black
president", like so many other claims of the
Clintonistas, is mostly smoke and mirrors. One
of the problems of the Clintons campaign is
narcissism. The Clintons created the mirage and
then they began believing their own
fabrications.For example, Mrs. Clinton lays claim
to health insurance. People across the world
believe she is their warrior, this is the issue she
will fall on her sword for. Not true- Mrs. Clinton
claims credit for a U.S. law called S-CHIP (states
childrens health insurance program) which
provides health insurance to children otherwise
not covered. This was an existing Massachusetts
law, it was siezed upon by Ted Kennedy (D-MA)
and co-sponsored by Oren Hatch (R-UT). It was a
much ballyhooed effort to expand children's
health coverage nationally and it was signed into
law by President Clinton. Many people were
present at the signing ceremony. Notably, Mrs. C
was not. Mr. Kennedy later said, in passing, that
Mrs. Clinton supported his efforts. Somehow, a
decade later, that has morphed into her being
responsible for the law's passage.
Perhaps this is the best example of narcissism
replacing history. Mrs. Clinton has spent nearly
20% of the average working person's life as a
sitting U.S. Senator from a very powerful
American State. Tell me, What is the most
significant piece of legislation this LawMAKER
can claim credit for?
