I hope that she is the right choice. Bill's dealings and contributors to his vast holdings should be put out of business. They certainly will influence her decisions on world policies, should they arise. He will no doubt be putting a bug in her ear if they concern his businesses. He has been dealing with these people for a long time, and she knew everything he was doing all along, and never did anything to stop him, so how is she going to be impartial to all he is doing? I think that the congress should put a stop to all his dealings and then maybe she would be the right choice.
Hillary Clinton, U.S. Secretary Of State Nominee

Clinton voted against the Military Commissions Act because, she said, "in the process of accomplishing what is essential for our security we must hold onto our values and set an example we can point to with pride and not shame."
U.S. Policy toward India
Clinton enjoys strong support from the Indian-American community. Indian Americans for Hillary 2008, founded by prominent hotelier Sant Singh Chatwal, planned to raise at least $5 million for the Clinton campaign (Asia Times).
With Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), Clinton announced plans to form a Senate India Caucus (The Hindu), which she would co-chair.
Clinton voted for the United States-India Energy Security Cooperation Act of 2006.
U.S. Policy toward Africa
Clinton stressed the importance of education in ameliorating the rampant poverty throughout Africa. She proposed the Education for All Act in 2007, which would amend the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 to include provisions for financial assistance specifically for promoting universal education in developing countries. In 2007, while she was still running for president, Clinton told Vanity Fair that if the act did not pass before her inauguration, she would make it her "first priority."
Clinton advocated a no-fly zone over Darfur, enforced by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), but said in a June 2007 Democratic debate that she does not believe U.S. troops should be sent to Darfur. She also said there should be unilateral airlift and logistical support for peacekeeping operations in Darfur from the United States or NATO. In February 2008, Clinton called on President Bush to appoint a "single, dedicated administration official who would have final authority on Sudan policy."
In May 2008, Clinton cosigned a statement with fellow presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama condemning the Sudanese government as "chiefly responsible" for the violence in Darfur and demanding that Khartoum adhere to its Comprehensive Peace Agreement with South Sudan.
