I'm sorry if this is off topic, but regardless if people consider her a good role model how the hell is she qualified to be POTUS? A miserable disasterous failure that is Benghazi and yet people still think she would be a good President? haha. no really, haha. What difference does it matter if a sprinkler or clinton are president? a sprinkler doesn't lie and forget to water your grass and most likely won't claim mechanical failure when asked about the events
america's future

Your entire post is gossip. Women are use to being the object of gossips.
I am sure she did not get to where she is by being a docile little girl with strict moral principles. I like that about her.
A new book, HRC, describes a carefully tended Clinton enemies list where the couple kept track of those who had abandoned or betrayed them. The private diaries of a close confidante, first reported on by the Washington Free Beacon, describe first lady Hillary Clinton’s desire to punish everyone from anonymous leakers to an Arkansas publisher during her husband’s presidency.
The story is based on statements by Jerry Zeifman, a Democrat, who was a counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee. He said that he supervised then Hillary Rodham who got a job working on the investigation of the Watergate scandal, which eventually brought Richard Nixon's presidency to an end through resignation.
Zeifman published a book in 2006 titled Hillary's Pursuit of Power. On his website, which is no longer on the Internet, Zeifman said "Hillary Clinton is ethically unfit to be either a Senator or President--and if she were to become President, the last vestiges of the traditional moral authority of the party of Roosevelt, Truman and Johnson will be destroyed."
Zeifman said that during her work on the investigation of the Watergate scandal, Hillary Rodham "...engaged in a variety of self-serving unethical practices in violation of House rules."
In 1998 Zeifman was a consultant to a member of the Judiciary Committee that impeached President Bill Clinton and said he "gained extensive personal insights into the unethical practices of Hillary Clinton in her White House 'West Wing' office."
Specifically, Zeifman believes that Hillary Rodham Clinton and others wanted Richard Nixon to remain in office to enhance the chances of Senator Ted Kennedy or another Democrat being elected president. Zeifman contends that in 1974 a young lawyer who shared an office with Clinton came to him to apologize that he and Clinton had lied to him. The lawyer, John Labovitz, is quoted as saying that he was dismayed with "...her erroneous legal opinions and efforts to deny Nixon representation by counsel -- as well as an unwillingness to investigate Nixon."
Zeifman charges that Clinton regularly consulted with Ted Kennedy's chief political strategist, which was a violation of House rules.
Another reason for Clinton's conduct, according to Zeifman, was that Democrats did not want Nixon to face an impeachment trial because they feared that as a part of his defense Nixon might want to bring up abuses of office by President John Kennedy.
Zeifman said he regrets that when he terminated Clinton from the Nixon impeachment staff he did not report her unethical practices to the appropriate bar association.
still better than any republican POTUS. you guys re-elected bush in 2004, even after 9/11 and the anthrax attacks....and you have the audacity to talk about failure???...I think that would qualify for a "are you kidding me award"

I'm still trying to figure out why an adult would need a "role model" of any kind...
Isn't that what being an adult is all about ?
Acquiring one's own knowledges, wisdoms, ideologies, self-thought, self-sufficiency, sense of individuality, etc... without the need to "aspire" to be like someone else ??
Otherwise, what's the point of "growing up" ??

So jeb bush it is then? Lol no matter what we get it will be a crock
Those voters need to know, for starters, that Mrs. Clinton once displayed incredible investment skills. In 1978 and 1979, when her husband was attorney general and then governor of Arkansas, she enlisted the help of a well-connected crony to invest $1,000 in the highly volatile and risky cattle futures market. Several months later, she walked away with $100,000 -- a 10,000-percent profit. Cynics thought the well-connected crony who executed the trades might have paid her the profits from good trades and absorbed the losses from bad ones, but Mrs. Clinton insisted that she developed her investing acumen by reading the Wall Street Journal.
New voters also need to learn about Mrs. Clinton's checkered history as a lawyer and the game of hide-and-seek she played with federal prosecutors who subpoenaed her old billing records as part of the Whitewater investigation. After two years of defying subpoenas and not producing the records, she suddenly claimed that they had been in a closet in the White House residence all along.
New voters also need to learn about Mrs. Clinton's purge of the White House travel office, which was done to steer business to another Clinton crony. There's no doubt she directed the 1993 firings of long-time White House employees although she testified under oath that she did not. Years later, prosecutors concluded that "Mrs. Clinton's sworn testimony … is factually inaccurate."
The reason there is the phrase "vast right-wing conspiracy" is that Mrs. Clinton unveiled it shortly after the scandal broke, in a mostly-successful effort to divert press attention away from President Clinton's behavior and instead to independent counsel Kenneth Starr and some anti-Clinton groups.
"The great story here, for anybody willing to find it and write about it and explain it, is this vast right-wing conspiracy that has been conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president," Clinton said on the Today Show in January 1998. What followed was a long, hyperventilating and mostly irrelevant diversion campaign — Look! Ken Starr was once a tobacco lawyer! — that would be a model for guilty defendants everywhere.

Nope.
Rather easy to talk about the epic failure of Democrats like Clinton instead of turning a blind eye to them as some people would like to have the masses do.
Bill Clinton the epic failure of the First World Trade Center Attack, The USS Cole Attacks, the epic failure of having 4 chances to kill Bin Laden,
To the wifeys epic failure on Benghazi.
How anyone would elect another Democrat, after the current guy, and their epic failures is beyond insane.

I read through this. You see, I can see it coming already. Why should Hillary be more ethical than the rest of the contenders?
Unethical and illegal are not the same. She hasn't even announced she is running and read some of the rabid posts. I am afraid for her to run because I am afraid someone will try to kill her after all the hate is stirred up. Instead of debating the issues between the contenders.

She is NO role model for women.
She makes me ashamed to be one, whenever she opens her mouth.
