Dick Morris points out Hillary Clinton's achievements as a Senator:
In five years as the most influential Democrat in the Senate, Hillary has managed to get the following laws and resolutions enacted:
• Establish the Kate Mullany National Historic Site
• Support the goals and ideals of Better Hearing and Speech Month
• Recognize the Ellis Island Medal of Honor
• Name courthouse after Thurgood Marshall
• Name courthouse after James L. Watson
• Name post office after John A. O'Shea
• Designate August 7, 2003, as National Purple Heart Recognition Day
• Support the goals and ideals of National Purple Heart Recognition Day
• Honor the life and legacy of Alexander Hamilton on the bicentennial of his death
• Congratulate the Syracuse University Orange Men's Lacrosse Team on winning the championship.
• Congratulate the Le Moyne College Dolphins Men's Lacrosse Team on winning the championship
• Establish the 225th Anniversary of the American Revolution Commemorative Program
• Name post office after Sergeant Riayan A. Tejeda
• Honor Shirley Chisholm for her service to the nation and express condolences on her death
• Honor John J. Downing, Brian Fahey, and Harry Ford, firefighters who lost their lives on duty.
Only five of Clinton's bills are, according to Morris, "substantive":
• Extend period of unemployment assistance to victims of 9/11
• Pay for city projects in response to 9/11
• Assist landmine victims in other countries
• Assist family caregivers in accessing affordable respite care
• Designate part of the National Forest System in Puerto Rico as protected in the Wilderness Preservation System

I just had an argument with my boyfriend who claims that he "loves" Hillary only because he loved Bill. I asked him to name one thing she's done in her 6 years as a junior senator and he couldn't name ONE. Well, now seeing this list I know that I'm right. I'm very happy that he's not American and can't vote anyway.
Hi, I'm thirteen years old, 8th grade, female and this is what i have to say about our political world today. I am in a very involved arguement with a student in my class. He believes ( he is republican) that Hilary Clinton should and will be a very bad choice for our country. He is basing his opinions on the following, she has no political experience, lack of respect for our president (because she's a woman), other countries will think we're weaker and attack and because shes a woman. FIRST OF ALL, she is THE SENATOR OF NEW YORK AND SHE IS A LAWYER. If anyone knows about politics, it's her. Aside from her personal issues concerning her and Bill while in the White House, she is the wife of our former president, Bill Clinton. Now, I ask him what have the Republicans done? WHAT HAS GULIANI DONE? Yes, he did a wonderful job cleaning the streets in New York BUT he is a small fish in a big pond. He does not have the same political experience as Hilary. I mean she's groomed (politically speaking) she's bean there done that. Also you ARE WRONG KRISTJAN!! DEMOCRATS DO HELP AND GIVE MONEY TO THE POOR BUT BECAUSE, OKAY heres why. Old, VETERANS FROM WORLD WAR 1 or 2 WHICH IS YOUR PREFERABLE TOPIC who fought for our FREEDOM can't even afford to pay taxes because republicans have implemented in gas PRICES GOING UP!!!!!!!!!!! AND HELLLLLLOOO! THE MAJORITY OF THE HOUSE OF RePRESENTATIVES... WHAT ARE THEY ...??????! DEMOCRATS THAT IT RIGHT. So yes those are my FACTS and opinions.
Thank You very much.
