    As expected, massive data on numerous accomplishments provided and only stupidity and snark in return.

    She visited 112 countries as Sec of State. I'm willing to bet DT couldn't give you 3 lines on at least 100 of them. But don't let facts diffuse your bias and hatred.

      At the heart of the tale are several men, leaders of the Canadian mining industry, who have been major donors to the charitable endeavors of former President Bill Clinton and his family. Members of that group built, financed and eventually sold off to the Russians a company that would become known as Uranium One.


      Beyond mines in Kazakhstan that are among the most lucrative in the world, the sale gave the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Mr. Clinton’s wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton.


      As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well.


      And shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech from a Russian investment bank with links to the Kremlin that was promoting Uranium One stock.

      was this debunked also.... you make me sick
      Source please. A real one.

        Traveling isn't an accomplishment, sorry. Impressive, sure, but not an accomplishment.

        I commended her on her child care efforts, a great leader there and while yes, it was done as First Lady, that's typical of a FLOTUS to take on interests. That's doesn't diminish it one bit, as it's been a pet project of hers pretty much her adult life. Excellent work.

        The rest just shows that she "worked on stuff".

          You don’t have to like Hillary Clinton or her ideas. I get it. She’s a Democrat, a progressive (in most eyes), and conservatives don’t like that. However, you cannot say she does not have any accomplishments. Here are just a few:


          ◾Even though her major initiative, the Clinton healthcare plan, failed (due to Republican obstruction), you cannot deny that it laid ground for what we have today, the Affordable Healthcare Act, something Clinton supports and would continue.
          ◾She played a leading role in the development of State Children’s Health Insurance Program, which provides the much-needed state support for children whose parents cannot afford nor provide them with adequate healthcare coverage.
          ◾She was also instrumental in the creation of the Adoption and Safe Families Act and the Foster Care Independence Act.
          ◾Successfully fought to increase research funding for prostate cancer and asthma at the National Institute of Health (NIH).
          ◾She spearheaded investigations into mental illness plaguing veterans of the Gulf War; we now have a term for it – Gulf War Syndrome.
          ◾At the Department of Justice, she helped create the office on Violence Against Women.
          ◾She was instrumental in securing over $21 billion in funding for the World Trade Center redevelopment.
          ◾Took a leading role in the investigation of health consequences of first responders and drafted the first bill to compensate and offer the health services our first responders deserve (Clinton’s successor in the Senate, Kirsten Gillibrand, passed the bill).
          ◾Was instrumental in working out a bi-partisan compromise to address civil liberty abuses for the renewal of the U.S. Patriot Act.
          ◾ Proposed a revival of the New Deal-era Home Owners’ Loan Corporation to help homeowners refinance their mortgages in the wake of the 2008 financial disaster.
          ◾Was a major proponent of sensible diplomacy which brought about a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, and brokered human rights with Burma.
          ◾Oversaw free trade agreements with our allies such as Panama, Colombia, and South Korea.
          ◾Was the most traveled Secretary of State to date.
          ◾The Clinton Foundation, founded by her and her husband, has improved the living conditions for nearly 400 million people in over 180 countries through its Initiative program.

          These are not all of her accomplishments. Her activism on behalf of women a children across the world is renowned. Her activism for raising the minimum wage and combating climate change is stellar. You do not have to support what she does or stands for. But do not say she doesn’t have any accomplishments. The conservatives who say this are the ones who are pushing for Ted Cruz – who brought on a $24 billion shut down. That, to them, is an accomplishment?

          Yes, Hillary Clinton has accomplishments. You don’t have to like them, but they do, in fact, exist.
          Senator Clinton had 3 pieces of legislation signed into Law in 8 years as a Senator.

          Naming a piece of highway after Tim Russert, re-naming a Post Office, and another local historical district thing. That is her legacy as a Senator.

          And visiting countries shows ACTIVITY not ACCOMPLISHMENTS. Flight attendants visit 112 countries too, doesn't mean anything. How are we doing with Russia, China, Iran, Israel, or pick any country in the Middle East?

            I think all the list of bullet points is a little more than "worked on stuff."

            Serious question since you think she just "traveled." Would you rather have a Prez who can talk coherently and intelligently about 112 countries or one who can't?

              Nice deflection. Did you notice that New York re-elected her? Did you notice that she had very strong endorsements from Mr. Trump?

                We can agree to disagree then. I see lots of lead, encouraged, noted, etc.

                Yes, I would rather have a Administration who can talk coherently and intelligently about 112 countries vs. one that cannot.

                Are you stating since she visited them, she can? Are you stating that any of the other 3 opponents cannot?

                  She's a democrat in New York. Not terribly hard to get re-elected, especially with her name.

                  I saw lots of comments from a long time ago (we can't bring up the past, remember!!) about how he liked her. Point?

                      No acting roles or draft dodging allowed.
                      Why bother. They have hated her since her service on watergate committee. She helped put Nixon down lol

                        And she promised to add 200,000 jobs.
                        That's didn't go so well, although a few Clinton donors turned out just fine.

                          Point? How about, all joking and snark aside, there truly has never been a more qualified candidate for President of the United States. Not particularly close either. And compared to DT it's absurd to even be having this back and forth.

                              You are certainly entitled to your opinion. I don't see where it should be stated as fact.

                                I think it's pretty clear that

                                1) HRC is a highly accomplished individual

                                2) the thin skinned whiners who go nuts is someone in their demographic is called "fat" breathes fire when calling her a whore and worse.
