Hello. This is Hillary Clinton. I want to thank you for letting me speak with you about an issue that is central to our childrens future and critical in our fight to restore this nations economy, solving our Nations Health care crisis. There is no prescription or role model or cookbook for being first lady. The future is created every day. The future is not something that is out there waiting to happen to us. The future is something that we make. Well, i have said, and i believe, that theres a good possibility that sometime in the next 20 years we will have a woman president. Hillary clinton logged many firsts in her role as first lady. Political partners since law school, the clintons survived scandals and even the impeachment of president bill clinton.

Well tell you the story of Hillary Clinton.
