Hillary ClintonShe dared the President of the United States for his flawed foreign policies, criticized him publicly for attacking Iraq and also fought with undying spirits for women rights. Standing firmly in the male dominated world of politics, Hillary Rodham Clinton, wronged the age old notion- politics is no more exclusive men’s affair.

With many firsts already in her resume, Hillary, with hubby Bill Clinton’s political blessings started her campaign for the countries highest post, President.
