The prospect of a commander-in-chief who might be prone to depression during a crisis could deter voters.
Why has nothing been reported on Hillary's seroius bouts of depression yet?This report is from Carl Bernstein.The media can't hide everything.

She wouldn’t be human {insert joke here} if she didn’t find some of what happened depressing.

The book says Clinton's "emotional state" was "as fragile as it had ever been" in late 1994 after her close friend Vince Foster had committed suicide, her father had died and her healthcare proposals had been rejected. Foster died in July 1993. Not "late 1994."
Hmmmm...

The claims are part of a potentially devastating portrait of a woman whom, Bernstein concludes, is controlling, aloof, dishonest and greatly flawed as a politician. Took him a while to figure that out.

Hillary ‘was hit by depression while first lady’
By Toby Harnden in Washington
(clip)
Bernstein suggests that this was not a one-off. He says she experienced recurring “February depression” as a college student. The future Mrs Clinton confided in Don Jones, a Methodist minister, who became a “confessor, partner in Socratic dialogue, and spiritual adviser”, according to Bernstein.
“When depression struck, she turned to him, as she would for the next three decades, including the year of her husband’s impeachment.”

There was even a joke button going around that had his name. The outer edge of the circular button had a line cord as a border.

Yeah she was depressed because she wanted to be the Prez and hated that Bill had the title. Just as Bill will go into depression mode if Hilly gets elected. Wait ..he already is with her being center of attention.

Barbara Streisand! In order to experience depression you have to have a conscience and she clearly doesn't have one.Fits of homocidal rage I could believe but never depression.

Get ready for bouts of extreme mania once Hillary! gets the reins
of power: the nuclear football, control of the US Military,
running the US Dept. of Justice....etc.
Seriously, having a power-hungry and mentally-distressed President
(of any party or gender) is a scary prospect.

Bernstein quotes David Gergen, then a senior Clinton aide, as saying: "I don't know whether she was seeing a doctor or not but she was depressed" in his book -- "A Woman in Charge" in 1994, a year after her husband, Bill Clinton became president. The book says Clinton's "emotional state" was "as fragile as it had ever been" in late 1994 after her close friend Vince Foster had committed suicide, her father had died and her healthcare proposals had been rejected. I'm no fan of Hillary, but Bernstein's hitting below the belt on this one -- if she hasn't felt sad about all this loss, she would have ice water in her veins. On this she gets a pass...

Imagine how depressed shell be when she loses. And any walls where the ashtrays and lamps hit - hope there's a little put away in the campaign funds for the cleanup of that mess.
