Thanks for that piece of info. Didn’t know she flunked DC bar.
Yep, Hillary flunked the 1973 DC bar. From her autobiography:
“
Despite the satisfaction of my work, I was lonely and missed Bill more than I could stand. I had taken both the Arkansas and Washington, D.C., bar exams during the summer, but my heart was pulling me toward Arkansas. When I learned that I passed in Arkansas but failed in D.C., I thought that maybe my test scores were telling me something. I spent a lot of my salary on my telephone bills and was so happy when Bill came to see me over Thanksgiving.”
I remember when Carl Bernstein wrote about her, he conveniently omitted this fact, and was roundly criticized. He explained “it wasn’t news.”
Michelle Obama failed the Illinois bar on first attempt, passed on subsequent attempt.
