Yes, she is the presumptive heir to the Democratic nomination--and heir is certainly appropriate here, she didn't seem to have earned it like others do, like her husband did.
She just announced her candidacy; and this is a political board designed for political discussions. So, we talk about her. We find her character and ability deficeient. We ask for help in reviewing her accomplishments, and about all we can get is dodges and deflections, like yours here.
or the incomplete list some partisan mod fed you and you ate like candy ... spare me the crapola, your intent is and was obvious.
then give us a complete list.

we'll be waiting----------------zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
I could care less about Clinton or what she has or hasn't done. Why bother giving one to idiots who do nothing but bash her anyway. Like Obama, Clinton is the object of your attention and soon to be downfall ... again.
You could care less what she's done?????
But, you are going to vote for her...just because she is a Democrat?
I'm not voting for anyone yet. I'm not a Democrat. I never voted for Obama. You're an idiot.
nonetheless ...
she played a leading role in advocating the creation of the State Children's Health Insurance Program, which provides state support for children whose parents cannot provide them with health coverage. She promoted nationwide immunization against childhood illnesses. She also played a leading role in creation of the Adoption and Safe Families Act and the Foster Care Independence Act. She encouraged older women to seek a mammogram for early detection of breast cancer (which is covered by Medicare) and successfully sought to increase research funding for prostate cancer and childhood asthma at the NIH. She worked to investigate illnesses that were reportedly affecting Veterans of the Gulf War; now commonly known as Gulf War Syndrome. And she created an Office on Violence Against Women at the Department of Justice. She is also the first, first lady to hold a post graduate degree, and she traveled to more countries than any other first lady had at that time.
As a U.S. senator, she was the first first lady to be elected to this office. She was instrumental in securing $21 billion in funding for the World Trade Center site's redevelopment. She subsequently took a leading role in investigating the health issues that 9/11 first responders were facing.
After visiting soldiers in Iraq, Clinton noted that the insurgency had failed to disrupt the democratic elections held earlier, and that parts of the country were functioning well. Noting that war deployments were draining regular and reserve forces, she cointroduced legislation to increase the size of the regular Army by 80,000 soldiers to ease the strain and supported retaining and improving health benefits for veterans. She also she introduced the Family Entertainment Protection Act.
That was just in her first term. She was easily re-elected and accomplished much in her second term {LIKE WHAT} as well. And her run for the presidency, receiving more than 17 million votes during the nomination process?
As our secretary of state, Clinton visited 112 countries, helping to repair a badly damaged U.S. reputation. She advocated an expanded role in global economic issues for the State Department and cited the need for an increased U.S. diplomatic presence, especially in Iraq, where the Defense Department had conducted diplomatic missions. Clinton unveiled the Global Hunger and Food Security program, prevailed over Vice President Biden to send an additional 21,000 troops to Afghanistan, saved the signing of a Turkish-Armenian accord, and assisted the president with major decisions as to the U.S. position with regard to the revolution in Egypt and the decision to use military force in Libya.
your turn, moron.
This is pretty much a regurgitation of the anemic list from the OP, but with a lot more words....they look like the kind of things a Woman's Civic Club works on...and they pale to insignificance when the real work of Secretary of State is considered....like dealing with the Russians (fail) dealing with Libya (fail) dealing with anyone else in the Middle-East which is now aflame (fail).
I have highlighted all the Weasel Words in your diatribe above...and also, what is the "much more" she accomplished in her second term as Senator? Stumped there?
She is just incompetent, except at Corruption, at which she does excel.
