Hillary Clinton - A Closer Look

Hillary Clinton is a senator from New York and running for the Democratic nomination for president.

Here are some of Clinton's points that I like:
  • Voted to end combat phase in Iraq on March 31, 2008
  • Health care plan- choice, same coverage as fed coverage
  • Helped create Head Start, co-sponsored special ed bill
  • Supports a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants
  • Supports Employment Non-Discrimination Act

Here are some I don't like:

  • Would likely leave troops in Iraq for a long time
  • Voted to name Iranian military unit a terrorist organization
  • Voted to authorize the Iraq war in 2002
  • Against driver's licenses for undocumented workers
  • For fencing on the Mexican border
  • Pro-death penalty

Here are some irrelevant fun facts:

  • Could beat every candidate in both parties in arm-wrestling contest
  • You think Mike Vick was bad, watch her dropkick a puppy
  • One of two candidates who wears pearls (the other, Mike Gravel)
  • Wants that young punk Obama off her lawn
  • Made a joke once in 1963- about a chicken, wasn't funny
