There are some who see the prospect of Hillary Clinton winning the U.S. presidency as a milestone for modern feminism and women in general. Yet Clinton’s decades-long march to the White House owes much of its success to her rapscallion, silver-tongued husband, Bill Clinton. She did not storm the citadel of male power and privilege from the outside; she was escorted in under the banner of one of its most flamboyant high achievers. She came into politics by the back door of her mate’s male prowess. She may be the first female presidential nominee for a major party, but it’s hard to say she shattered glass ceilings. She has always had Bill’s key to the penthouse.
Bill Clinton was everywhere before her — always in front, opening every door, setting up the machinery for her advance and enabling her to reach a standing that she could never have achieved without him. The Hillary Clinton story is, in this case, A Handmaid’s Tale.
The true feminist icons were not enabled by men — they rose to the top on their merits and prowess alone. Consider the example of Golda Meir, who was elected prime minister of Israel nearly 50 years ago — before the advances of progressive thinking, before the societal push to get more women into public life. Meir was a pioneer, at a time when female heads of government were virtually unheard of.

Probably the chandelier that she has hit Bill with.
Clinton = human scum
Is that how she got her concussion?
organized crime
Richest organized crime moll in history?
They didn’t mean glass ceiling, they meant ASS ceiling... And she’s the complete ass.
In my opinion, the biggest part of the people voting for Clinton is because of two letters...D for democrat...And F for female...
These people are totally ignoring the history of this woman...
Recently on Fox a so-called "expert" on politics was touting Hillary as being the most qualified to run based on her accomplishments. A conservative expert invited to the discussion asked just what is so good about electing Hillary? The liberal replied that if Hillary is elected, we get Bill Clinton for free to take care of things. The conservative retorted "Oh that's just fine for pushing the concept of women's equality, she gets elected because she married Bill but she can't do the job, Bill will!". Liberal was perplexed!
The only glass ceiling she broke was having the chutzpah to run as a feminist based on her husband's accomplishments, the man who treated so many women like dirt.
They seem to think she won’t lie to them or screw them over.
That is definitely ignoring her history.
A “D” and an “F”?
As in Dumb F^&%’s.
The pay to play ceiling....

Don’t know abut ceilings but a few mirrors probably regret her presence.
She road her husbands career higher than any female ever has.
Rode not road
THESE two people are no different from al sharp ton shaking down businesses. The clintons shake down countries.
