    Well , it does afterall gives the than First Lady of the United States an upperhand in this election to be an experienced candidate from both Aisles of the political party. As the article points out how Hillary Cliton influenced her husband in formulating major policies that really mattered for the national security of this country whether it comes in the forms of Foriegn policy, economy and many other vital issues that concerns the American people. For those nay sayer twho says that she does not posess political experience, they should just go back to the economic boom in the 90's and mostly the peace that ushered around the world during that period.

    It will be healthy if we have a change in the leadership that will bring back the lost image that United States always held around the world and we believe that a Madam President will bring back such image back for this country. Because she has travelled hundred of nationss around the world and every where she was well liked. In other words, an effective First Lady and as a Senator from New York who can tackle major policy initiatives first hand should give people an understanding that Hillary Clinton certainly has the experience and temparament to become the President of the United States. So stay tuned!

    I find the whole tone of this article nasty and negative, what bone does the author need to pick with HRC? Or does she just not like strong, intelligent women?

    I believe it is our responsibility as Americans to be serious and well informed in our choice for president . We must rechearch and make our decisions for base on knowledge, not popularity. After all we are leaving our precious USA to our children and to their children. So look study and decide as best as possible on fact not opinion. No matter your pary you hve to be registered something to vote . Don't be afraid to cross over if need be. It was an educated decision.

    I think maybe some feel very intimidated when a woman as intellegent and educated as Mrs Clinton is runnning for such a high office. I''m still undecided and will be until the last few days before voting. Right now I want to give all an even chance.

    Finally some solid good sense on Hillary's White House experience!

    I'm glad these details are finally being posted, all together. Having watched the Clinton team since 1992, I'm boggled at people claiming Hillary was "just someone's wife" or "is new to elective office."

    In a Mom and Pop operation, it's common for things to be Pop's name, and often for him to be the front person. But while he's out front shaking hands, Mom is in the back room doing the brain work.

    In the 1992 campaign and in the early years of the Clinton team's terms, they were attacked on the groudns of Hillary having too much influence. I wonder how many of those attackers are attacking her now as not having real experience. In the negative movie PRIMARY COLORS the wife was shown negatively -- for being the real brains behind the campaign.

    Imo not just Hillary has more experience than, er, one of her opponents. Jackie Kennedy, Nancy Reagan, and Laura Bush have more experience than he does, too!

    And where is common sense? I suppose it's nice that no one is talking about 'Bill's third term' and few are calling her 'Evita.' But even if there are areas where Bill has more experience -- he'll be right there. It's the team, again.

    When knocking Hillary or any other candidate please be more specific as to what you are basing your comment on. Some of us are still undecided and are trying to make an educated choice.

    Nunya1976 Could you be more specific on what you base your comment ? I read and hear people knocking Hillary but nobody ever says why.

    Is anyone else disgusted beyond words at the prospect of another cycle of the Clinton - Bush merry-go-round? The Clinton and Bush dynasties have had two decades to screw things up. It's time for real change.
