Hillary may have been one of the best presidents this country has ever known. The reason she did not get the nomination was due to the resistance of putting a woman in office by the souther male evangelicals. They never thought a black would be elected, surprise, surprise. Now this same group is called the tea party and who are openly against blacks, seniors, the disable, and needy children. Never has America been more threatened by an single group as the tea party.
as a former hillary supporter, i am amused by this post.
the liberals trashed the he## out of hillary because she wasn't perceived as quite as liberal as obama. that is where she got the most resistance! she knew it too, but i think she stopped fighting when she worked out the secretary of state deal. she totally smoked obama in the debates, though.
as a fiscal conservative, i thought all 3 choices were terrible-but obama was totally in bed with wall street and has an anti-american streak, mccain loves wars, and hillary seemed like the only logical solution.
it was a very weak field, but she was also the most intelligent of the 3 candidates running, and that has its advantages in coming up with solutions. the tea party has PLENTY of women in it, and there are plenty of female voices in the tea party. look at all of the fiscal conservative female voices out there.
the tea party only "threatens" big government--- which explains all the charges of "racism and sexism" out there.
and to the few people who think she would have been worse, i ask you how could she have been worse?

At least her husband has the best track record of any president in at least 30 years. I'd rather Bill Clinton back at the helm than Marcus Bachmann running things behind the scene.
In hindsight I would agree with you about Bill Clinton, though my conservative nature kept me from liking him when he was in office.
But it seems that America has been for some time now in a era of repeatedly lowering the bar of expectation. And based on where a succession of Presidents have put the bar, I'd say Bill Clinton was the best since JFK.
That said, I still think Hillary by herself would be worse than Obama - probably much worse. But Bill's presence and influence would improve the overall result.
I think Hillary would have been better for the simple fact that when she needed advice all she has to do is roll over in bed and ask her husband.(The best president we've had in the last 25 years.)
As much as I disagree with Hillary Clinton's perspective, I feel she would have been a better president. She's stronger, she wouldn't bow to other rulers, she would make straightforward decisions.
While I don't like her, she definitely would be better at the job.

Do you have any documented proof for your race baiting, racist, hate filled slanderous and ignorant comment?
