Hillary's time spent at ground zero after 9/11?

Does anyone know if there is a record of how many days Hillary spent at ground zero just after 9/11?

I know she was there the next day (the 12th) but what about the next day and other days?

I know she was critical of other politicians at the time of going to ground zero for publicity photos and then not doing anything for the first responders and the city. And she was very attentive from day one to what first responder cleanup crews were dealing with.

We all know many who were exposed to the air at ground zero just after the attack, even for a week, developed different reseritory issues.

I don't want to belittle the sacrifice of first responders --- who sacrificed more than anyone to clean up ground zero--- but Hillary WAS at ground zero after the attack with all that polluted air around.

My angle on this is could Hillery's persistent cough be linked to her service for her country at ground zero?

I think if her campaign could link her coughing to her time at ground zero, that might inspire a more sympathetic reaction from voters to, at least, her occasional coughing fits.

What do you think? Should I work strategy for the campaign?

to even consider.

She was there and she was there plenty enough.
