Hillary Clinton is heralded as a girl power icon in a new children's picture book
The Daily Herald ^ | January 31, 2016

Chelsea Clinton, who is expecting her second child after giving birth to baby Charlotte in 2014, has a new book to read to her little ones at bedtime.

A children's book about their grandmother Hillary Clinton chronicles her ascent from a young girl in Illinois to a politician in Washington D.C.

Titled Hillary Rodham Clinton: Some Girls Are Born to Lead, the book starts: 'In the 1950s, it was a man's world.

'Only boys could grow up to have powerful jobs. Only boys had no ceilings on their dreams.

'Girls weren't supposed to act smart, tough or ambitious. Even though, deep inside, they may have felt that way.

'But in the town of Park Ridge, Illinois, along came Hillary.'

The opening spread of the book shows Hillary standing out as a young girl with her hands on her hips amidst a sea of different men who are illustrated in muted tones.

Published by Balzer and Bray for readers between the ages of four and eight, the book presents Clinton as the ultimate girl-power role model.

From 'acing tests' and 'upstaging boys in class' Clinton is also shown at her wedding, presenting key speeches and working on the campaign trail.

It doesn't shy away from the details, stating people 'criticized her - in ways they'd never criticize a man' - as she stood by her husband's 1992 presidential campaign.

Do the early pictures of Hillary in the book show that she has brown eyes when she was a child and for years later into adulthood? Then at some point she started to fake her eye color using deep blue contact lenses.

That’s the first time I’ve ever seen Hillary in a dress.

Does this book include Hillary’s lie that NASA told her they don’t hire women and that women could not be astronauts?

The libs must be frightened if they are stooping to children.

Libs treat all voters like small children. Ever hear their condescending tone and simplistic reasoning?

I seem to recall a documentary from the 80s about Stalin’s niece or something. I couldn’t find it but I did run across this:

Not to mention, Hillary’s tall tale that she (born in ‘47) was named for famed mountaineer Edmund Hillary [Everest climb ‘53].

The book comes with its own pop-up air sickness bag.

Where in the book does it narrate the appropriate way for a woman to climb that ladder of success by marrying an ambitious Man?

Some Girls are astute enough to marry the right Man.

Furthermore: She is not titled. Yet.

Svetlana Stalin, Stalin’s daughter, was one of the few to accept the reality about her father. She had a troubled life after leaving Russia.

... like Queen Elizabeth II who was the first-born child in a monarchy. But the last time I checked this was still nominally a republic without born rulers.
