And I know its mostly fiction, but the very words I uttered when i heard she wanted to become a senator was "Ah so Primary colours was spot on!" My sis was even laughing at me when I said it, its just my gut feeling, and I cant warm to her for some reason(like sarah said). Oh well, it doesnt matter what I think.........she may just be the next US president

You know I actually forgot about that movie. But it has been rumored for many many years about her zero minded ambition.

Her public persona might be very different for people within her inner circle. Sometimes I feel she gets a bad rap.
Maybe.

Come to think of it. Do you think Hillary's moment of weakness in New Hampshire, was because she was afraid based on the polls at the time, that if she lost in New Hampshire, her dream to become president was over?

Primary colors on my list of movies to watch....but errrrrrrrrm, if you do not have anything good to say of my QUEEN Hillary, abeg carry it go...but seriously, u all got to know that the Clintons where not liked right from the start and it appeared they had some serious enemies...and so I will not be surprised at all that the movie protrayed her to be what you all described her to be. As for her standing by her man thru out the difficult times, it may look bad to some but I have a feeling she had no choice as the first lady at that time and leaving him will have been the ultimate betrayal...the very people who were against her for standing by his side, will have also accussed her of not being loyal to him regardless...but i bet you, if Bill tries that mess NOW, she will not hesitate to kick him to the curve...as I honestly do not see how much of Bill will stop Hillary at this point.

She had the choice of dropping him then and my stand was recently demonstrated by Sarkosky's wife in France.Hillary like we know is overtly ambitious and had an eye on the presidency even before Bill Clinton zipped down his pants for Lewinsky.

Seriously Papino, why did she have to drop him then? It was obvious that the Monica L matter was all a set up...even the Monica child herself was part of the setup if you paid close attention to the news...I mean, she could have denied it all when it became public but Monica did the opposite....So if Bill had enemies out to destroy him, then Hillary choosing to leave him, will not have been a good move on her part.

Samira,the answer to the "why"you asked above is bcos of her present shot and a chance of being the President of the US.That chance would have been blown if she left him then.PERIOD
I mean,are we not talking of America where people find enough reasons for divorce with minor issues like a fight over TV programmes or one feeling disrespected when a spouse danced "wholesale" after preparing palatable"Ngwo-Ngwo" for another man?

Speaking about this movie made me think of something I wanted to write about on Wednesday but forgot...I like that she showed her emotion in NH...she's been missing that and that is one positive that a woman can bring to the Presidency....Emotions work well when used strategically.

On Tueday morning, I was telling someone that she was missing a key component in her character and that was it. She does not need that "plastic fascade" to follow her....she needs to show people that she is HUMAN and not ice cold, the way some would portray her.

In addition, she should not be following the "Change" boat, but instead should be using the keyword "RePair"...

As far as a Woman being "Better," I don't think I'd qualify that. I believe that we can lead "differently" and that we can bring the best of both worlds to the table. We have the reason AND the emotion to foster and build RelationShips with many.

Maybe, 100% of Hillary's experience is because of her proximity to her husband. Maybe, anything and everything that Hillary has done in her professional life has occurred because she happened to be in the orbit of her husband as governor of Arkansas and then President of the United States. Maybe, she would have no political standing or place in American politics without the support of her husband. But I tell you Papino, politics is about painting a picture of yourself. And I think she had already achieved that by the time the Monica L saga came up...even if it was through her husband...the woman had the passion and a goal and she did whatever it took her to get there. I do not blame her! How many people will go this far to to get what they want? After all it is not as if she committed a crime to get where she is today. Her reasons to stand by her husband during that time is not even the point as it was her choice and I do not see why people are against that.

My point is regardless,of her staying with Bill or left him, she will have STILL made it where she is today because she was persistent, consistent, as well as very determine to get there by working her butt off, suffering in silence through the humiliation that Bill put her, winning the election to become the senator of NY, and proving to the world that she had what it takes to be the President of the United States... I respect her for that as she did what she had to do to get where she is today! That is all part of the game called POLITICS my friend!

Bullsugar!IF she would have made it otherwise without Bill, she would have made it only with GOD and not,according to you "because she was persistent, consistent, as well as very determined to get there by working her butt off". .
Regardless that Bill Clinton messed up with the Lewinsky saga, he is still one of the presidents people love, both in his country and beyond.
When u're likable, people are almost always willing to turn a blind eye on ur fault or at the most have a forgiving heart towards said person. And it is also this likability issue that has voters hesistant on Hillary- she showed warmth and emotion when she appeared vulnerable.Perhaps in voting for her, people may feel Bill would be just s step away from the office.
But still ,may the better suited person win
