Hillary Clinton on the Issues: "We need a uniquely American solution to health care."
For me, it's a fairly exciting prospect that there might be a woman president in the United States. Not a woman for the sake of having a woman, nor a woman because she happens to be there, but a woman who could really do the job. So when Hillary Clinton finally put her hand up, then I felt motivated to find out more about her. The whole world seems to be dominated by men at the moment and I have blogged before that we cannot seem to get women to last. Some great women just seem incapable, for whatever reason, of hacking the pace. What are they lacking? What is going on that they can't stand up to it? Are women not able to do the big jobs? Surely not. It's something we need to look at and work on because the world is there for everyone and there ought to be a balance because then I think everyone feels like their point of view is represented and they don't get anxious. As I looked for things on Hillary Clinton, I was amazed to find this site OntheIssuesand there before me were all the headings and all the things she had said. Granted, I thought it a bit harsh for anyone to have to front up and be held accountable for something they said in 1999, but there are so many things, you do get the overall picture and this site does the same for all the major candidates. Amazing research and fantastic organisation. It would also mean that people would be careful about what they said incase it was put on here...that might not be a good thing. Nevertheless, to have this kind of information gives you great insight into a politician and how they are developing.
