Hillary
Diane Rodham Clinton (b. October 26,
1947) Hillary Clinton, is the
United States Secretary of State, and a
former Senator from the state of New York.
Hillary Clinton initially gained fame as
the wife of President Bill Clinton, and is
today one of those unique individuals who
is easily identified by her first name.
Mentioning "Hillary" in any type of
political context guarantees passionate
opinions either for or against her. She
proved to be a lightning rod of support
for President Clinton from his allies and
various liberal groups, especially those
involved in feminist/women's issues and
health care. Just as powerfully, Hillary
Clinton evokes strong reactions from
Republicans and conservative groups who
see her as someone to both mock and fear
as the 2008 Presidential election draws
ever nearer. Hillary Clinton was
considered such a strong contender for the
Democratic Presidential nomination, that
Republicans often looked at their roster
of potential candidates with thoughts of
whether or not those potential candidates
can effectively match up against Hillary
Clinton. Clinton came in second
in the Iowa Caucuses , won the New
Hampshire Primary, and won the Nevada
Caucuses. Not long before the
Democratic Convention, it was apparant
that Barack Obama would win the
nomination. Clinton lent her support to
Obama, and in return, Senator Obama urged
his supporters to help Hillary Clinton
retire her campaign debt. As the 2008
Presidential campaign wound to a close,
Hillary Clinton, as well as her husband,
President Bill Clinton, actively
campaigned on behalf of Barack Obama and
other Democrats. Following Barack
Obama's victory over Republican John
McCain, Hillary Clinton was invited to
join the Obama Administration as America's
face to the world as the Secretary of
State. Your
