What politicical experience does Hillary Clinton have?

Question

Hillary claims 35 years of experience. What specifically is the experience she is talking about here?

Answer 1

she ran the country for 8 years.....☺☺☺☺☺

Answer 2

Riding on the successes of her husband.  She doesn't have any experience that she's actually had to work for and being a President is a lot of work.

Answer 3

In a news conference Deanna Favre announced she will be the starting QB for the Packers this coming Sunday.  Deanna asserts that she is qualified to be starting QB because she has spent the past 16 years married to Brett while he played QB for the Packers.  During this period of time she became familiar with the definition of a corner blitz, and is now completely comfortable with other terminology of the Packers offense.  A survey of Packers fans shows that 50% of those polled supported the move.

Does this sounds idiotic and unbelievable to you?  Well, Hillary Clinton makes the same claims as to why she is qualified to be President and 50% of democrats polled a greed.  She has never run a City, County, or State.    

When told Hillary Clinton has experience because she has 8 years in the white house, d**k Morris stated 'so has the pastry chef'.

Answer 4

she kissed bill's a** for those years + if we get attacked again with her pres .  she will cry.

Answer 5

She was the wife of a governor and a president that she helped out with health care reform and other goverment things for 35yrs.  She is the NY senator, and she did not just pop up out of nowhere. She has in the last 35yrs  and will do this for the country:

      Strengthening the Middle Class

Providing Affordable and Accessible Health Care

Ending the War in Iraq

Promoting Energy Independence and Fighting Global Warming

Fulfilling Our Promises to Veterans

Supporting Parents and Caring for Children

Restoring America's Standing in the World

A Champion for Women

Comprehensive Government Reform

Strengthening Our Democracy

Reforming our Immigration System

An Innovation Agenda

Answer 6

Her marriage to Bill.

Answer 7

Well, this may not be a superb answer but my ex worked in cable, so I know a lot about the cable repair business.  My ex husband (years ago) worked in a greenhouse with plants, so I know alot about that, too.  I'm going somewhere with this..

Plus, wasn't she a Senator?

She was also a lawyer.

Answer 8

I am still waiting for those records from the White House years to actually FIND OUT.  There is a huge reason why these are not being released folks, especially during the current election.  Other than that, I have seen "not much" in her record as being a Senator.

Answer 9

I dont know...hmmmm, Senator of New York...does that qualify????

Answer 10

As an "elected" official (and I use that term loosely!), she has only her 8 years.

Prior to that, she never had to answer to any constituency at all.

Further proof that she is not up to the job.

she was a senator for ny.

Answer 15

NONE!  

She worked as an attorney before Bill ws elected President. Then she lied about having the billing records for

Whitewater.  

Then she worked as Bill's sounding board.

Then she was a senator for NY... and she has done basically nothing...... as senator.

Answer 16

I'm aware of the time she's served as Senator from New York.. I think she might be eluding to the time she's spent in the White house as first lady and as Gov. Clinton' wife  when he was governor of Arkansas.

Answer 18

People have answered this question showing all her organizations and such that she is in but why?  How involved was she did she just sit in a few meetings and donate money!?  Being involved in an organization does not necessarily give you experience.  I have been involved in many organizations since I graduated high school some I have just been acknowledged for 10 years of service, but guess what other than reading a monthly or bi-yearly newsletter and donating money and maybe an day per year to do something and I really have done nothing-at least nothing that should allow me to say I am qualified!

I want someone who has run at least a state or been right in the deciding factor to run my country.  She has been the NY Senator since 2000.  And I feel she should not have been able to run for a state she did not even live in.  So in my opinion her ONLY political experience is 7 years so far as a Senator.  

And really most people get that many years in political service by being in high school and college political parties so really 1/2 of America has as much experience as she does, at least if you are going to count her many organizations and first lady status then these school political organizations should count!

Johnny's answer is awesome!  And really how can you run the USA when you have never even held a measily city office position.

Answer 19

The White House chef I'm sure has been there for about 20 plus years. With that many years of "political experience" he should be her VP.

Answer 20

She first served politically as congressional legal advisor. She was one of only two women that served in this capacity on an advisory board during the Nixon Watergate scandal. Later she also worked for Carter's administration. All of this happened prior to her marriage to Bill Clinton and is a matter of public record.

Answer 21

Arguing with Bill

Answer 22

Well, when her husband and her have been involved in some sort of protest in what they believe in , in college, and have been involved in making changes and being active in getting them made all their lives, and she has seen first hand what it takes to get into the White House.  And once in there, she had clout to make the policies she wanted to see work, work, or if they didn't , found out real fast just how cynical and self absorbed the Government really is, and had to work around it.  These are extremely good reasons to merrit the term experience.  Having seen the governmental process from the outside and the inside,and how to meet with and influence dignitaries and leaders, and how to dodge the bullets of the left and right wings, makes her extremely experienced compared to her rivals.  They may have been in offices of the Governmental branches, but worked from the perimeters and not from the inside of the heart of what makes it tick.  That kind of knowledge you can only learn from being there .

Answer 23

Stop talking bad about Hillary, She'll start crying all over again

Answer 24

She thinks her years married to Bill Clinton should be included in her years of experience.  She is simply full of it.

One day, Chelsea Clinton will run for president and say, "I'm 35 years old and I have almost 50 years experience!"

lmao

she is also talking about the time she is indited 3 times over the white water scandal... meaning she counts being a crook as experience.

People claimed 7 years ago that Bush should be elected because he has his daddy to back him up.  Wow the guy already had political clout and knows what it takes.  It seems some people never learn.  SAY "NO" TOO DYNASTY!
