Hillary Clinton Accomplishments?

[josieposy]

She also fought the man who wanted to tear down her beloved house for development by tying a million helium balloons to her house and floating it all the way to South America!

You would think an IT CEO would know better, tisk, tisk.

BTW my cousin was one of those 30,000. Even before she had a political star to shine, we've heard from her how evil Fiorina is.

I saw Fiorina earlier this year at a major tech conference. It was the day after (?) she announced her candidacy. She claims to be the super tech-savvy candidate, so this was apparently her way of showing her tech-savviness.  She was on a panel with a bunch of people from TechCrunch, and they asked her about net neutrality - her answer was basically that net neutrality is bad, most people and the general public doesn't support net neutrality, and that most people use technology in a frivolous, meaningless way. It was SO SO painfully tone-deaf, especially given the audience. All anybody talked about that day was how terrible she was.

Oh. So I have to post more to have a serious question? I bet if HRC actually had accomplishments, it would be a serious question.
And again. Not a Carly supporter, she just asked the question and I'm genuinely curious.

I heard Hillary once shot a man in Reno just to watch him die.

[josieposy]

One time she helped an orca escape captivity by convincing it to jump over a pile of rocks.

I mean seriously, she was a US Senator and the US Secretary of State. Does this really need to be explained?

Why isn't it a serious question? Because it's Hillary? Are we all supposed to just automatically know how awesome she is?

Because it's from someone with 2 posts. Who posted something about all the things Fiorina has done and then claims this isn't about her. Even the Republicans aren't claiming Hillary hasn't accomplished anything. Several of them refer to "Obama-Clinton" policies. They are arguing that her accomplishments have hurt the country, not that she hasn't done anything. 

I mean, the About section of her website is a good place to start. 

Ah got it. I guess these are those situations where height matters.

Still disappointed this isn't a real accomplishments thread but oh well. And I've seen her website, to include her About section. Thanks for the tip though!

You can read the article I linked too.

Um. Busting in with a combative tone ain't gonna help you make friends and influence people. 

If if you are genuinely curious and you managed to find the piece you posted in the OP and managed to find this place, I assume you know how to google "Hillary Clinton accomplishments." It would turn up something like this:

www.foxnews.com/opinion/2015/06/03/dear-hillary-clinton-help-us-help.html

I'm not sure what kind of accomplishments you're looking for here. Like, her resume? Or specific things she did while Sec. of State/Senator/etc.?

No, you have to post a question where the answer isn't either painfully obvious or easily google-able. Might I suggest her wikipedia page as a starting point?

Well, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Santorum, Rubio and all those idiots serve in Congress too so... lol. And since I still want to mention these crazies, Huckabee, Walker, Jindal were elected as Governors of their states, so yeah.

Favorite.


When do we get to start talking about all the things cats have accomplished? We outshine any human.

[seenoevil]

Like the time she managed to lose all of her law firms documents and files. In an abandoned car in Little Rock.

That's true. But still, being elected to Congress is an accomplishment. 

[josieposy]

She led the 1980 Team USA hockey team to a victory over the Soviets at Lake Placid.

But was that enough for Hillary? Hell no! Because then she gave a very moving speech to a bunch of pilots just before they defeated an alien invasion!

Specific things she did in those positions, but it's cool. I know how to Google. Just thought I'd read some great stuff from you all. This really isn't me trying to be an ass. I think there are a lot of really informed people in CEP who support Hillary, and as a result, I wonder if I missed something since I haven't followed her the way some of you have and I don't get a warm and fuzzy from her.

I would never argue Walker doesn't have accomplishments. I would argue his accomplishments indicate he should not be POTUS. He's (unfortunately) done a lot in his time as governor of Wisconsin. 

[zoegirltx]

Well start here if you have no idea who she is or what she's accomplished.. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillary_Clinton

I think the Senator & SOS are enormous accomplishments & round out her credentials nicely.

So a few reasons she's more "accomplished" than Carly (at least WRT to being POTUS)
-she's served in high levels of government
-she familiar with both politics and the importance of governing (the latter the GOP has no interest in doing though)
-she's got a law degree, which although important, it isn't necessary for POTUS but goes a long way towards helping them govern within the framework of the Constitution
-her diplomatic resume is one of the most impressive around & her background will help us work with other countries

Are there people here actually considering voting for them?

Well, thanks to the OP this isn't a particularly serious thread, but here's a good (serious) place to start: 


Was Hillary Clinton a good secretary of state?

But was this before or after she was named the first female partner of said law firm???
