The First Woman President Or a Third Term for Bill? Is this supposed to liberate women?

[FrenchieCat]

I had always imagined that the first woman President would achieve that achievement based on her own distinct merits.

[Deja Q]

1. What, it won't be Hillary's third term?

:hide:

2. lol

That is how Presidents have often been discussed in this country - the woman behind the man. Is the woman actually allowed to switch positions with the man?

[fenriswolf]

5. uummm hmmmm

sorry couldnt resist. I know I know im so jeuvinile.

3. They're a team.

Always have been. He leaned on Hillary a lot when he was President and she would do the same if she wins. It's a package deal with the Clintons.

[Tulkas]

14. Please

They barely spoke for almost two years. (can't blame her for that though)


She claims to know nothing about any of the pardons he dished out at the end of his second term, even though her brother was involved in some of them. Not much of a team player there.



He gave her the socialized medicine program, she failed miserably. After that she went sight seeing around the world on the taxpayer's dime.
Yes she met some interesting people when she traveled. I can't believe that they took her any more seriously than we would the wife of the Prime Minister of England.

She was, is, and always will be, Just Bill Clinton's Wife (that he cheated on)

7. Unfortunately, this is the problem I have with Senator Clinton.

I am having trouble believing that a new Clinton White House would be different from the old Clinton White House.
She should have run using her maiden name. She would have more credibility with me that way. I want a new fresh direction for America and our party. I am doubting that it will come with the Clinton's back in power.

11. "She should have run using her maiden name. She would have more credibility with me that way. "

The nerve of feminists nowadays: taking the husband's surname.
:sarcasm:


Plenty of people would say that her husband is too weak if she doesn't take his surname. Is there a limit of one politician per couple?

[Muttocracy]

17. honest question on her name

I swear I heard "Hillary Rodham Clinton" early last year and then it changed to "Hillary Clinton" later on. I hope I'm wrong on that - and that may be the media's doing rather than anything to do with her or her campaign.

And, um, I'd be for that one per family limit (no Laura Bush for Senator please!) :hide:

9. This is what I call "looking a gift horse in the mouth". nt

[annie1]

10. I don't have a problem admitting i wish he'd get off her back. that being said...

i do believe she is winning on her own merits. she seems to do much better after debates, and those are all her.

[FrenchieCat]

12. But in the debate, she talks about how she's done stuff......

I'm just not sure if what she's done is really more than what Obama's done. It is the weight of her husband's job that allows her to get away with this mantra that she contineously speaks of in these debates.

[Tulkas]

16. so that is why he was in the hotels that had caucuses today?

Winning on her own merits?

LOL


She is winning because she has a former president for an attack dog.

13. Hillary would be nowhere in politics without Bill

The fact of the matter is without being married to Bill and getting all of the national attention from it Hillary would probably not stand much of a chance at the nomination. Instead she's basically inherited all of the pros and cons of Bill Clinton, and polls have consistently shown that among Hillary Clinton's supporters a large part of them (60% or more in NH I think) admit they would vote for Bill instead of Hillary if Bill was on the ballot.

15. Either choice in your header is fine by me!
