If we were to make a Hillary montage, starting with the Maya Angelou quote about

people showing themselves as they really are, what would you add to it?

The Greenpeace blow-up, of course, but what else? (Maybe include the videos here as well, in case someone wants to really make this montage.)

5. "It’s Time for the United States to Start Thinking of Iraq as a Business Opportunity”

But this is my fav, about Lincoln:

"You know, he was willing to reconcile and forgive. And I don’t know what our country might have been like had he not been murdered, but I bet that it might have been a little less rancorous, a little more forgiving and tolerant, that might possibly have brought people back together more quickly…But instead, you know, we had Reconstruction, we had the re-instigation of segregation and Jim Crow. We had people in the South feeling totally discouraged and defiant. So, I really do believe he could have very well put us on a different path.”

A startling view of this time period in US history.

had run it in a long time."


Clinton, looking to boost her résumé, said, "I was very flattered when Henry Kissinger said I ran the State Department better than anybody had run it in a long time. So I have an idea about what it's going to take to make our government work more efficiently."
