What would you all think about having this woman as president? Do you think she'd be better/ worse than her husband? I did not vote for obama this year and I wonder if she might be any better

I see her as better than Obama, but not as good as Bill.

Basically, I see her as similar to George W. Bush, but less controversial.

I think four years is a long time in politics--especially if you aren't on the front pages.

Ask again in two years, and see where she is positioned relative other potential Democrats. I suspect the nomination will still be hers if she wants it, but someone else might have eclipsed her by then.

I think she would make a good president and have been better then Obama, Bush and Bill. But she says she is done with politics.

I predict that it will be Hillary running against Jeb Bush in 2016.

Whoever wins will serve two terms, and then will be succeeded by then old enough to run Chelse Clinton. And American will remain forever under the rule of the dualing Bush/Clinton dynasties.

God help you all when it's Barbara and Jenna's turn.

Women in the public eyes are seen not to age as well as men, unfortunately, and she'll be pushing 70 by then, which is old for presidential candidate standards generally.

I have no problem with a female leader - but Hillary scares the crap out of me!

I like Hillary and I feel like she's the most suitable female candidate at this point. I also feel it's important to have a female president because our country is really, really behind in that regard -- that said, I wouldn't want an unsuitable candidate be elected just because they're female because, if anything, that would seriously set us back.

I'm honestly hot sure how she'd do in comparison to others but my guess is she's be more willful than Obama, a heck of a lot smarter than Bush, and different but also a tad more liberal than her husband.

I know quite a few people -- Democrats and Republicans -- who would happily vote for her and I find that quite encouraging, especially if she decides to run.

Hillary would be blessed relief. Compared to Obama and the crap that the Republicans are putting forward, she looks positively good. Even I might vote for her.

She will not run. After what happened in Ben gaze and how it's being covered up she will retire soon.

The damage that has been done to the Republican party by the election and subsequent re-election of a black Democrat may be irrecoverable.

The election of a woman Democrat to the presidency in 2016 would make that certain.

... in my opinion, of course ...

We don't know that yet. A fainting spell could indicative of serious condition or it could be minor. For all we know, Sec. of State Clinton has run herself ragged flying every which where. The change in time zones can really unhinge a person.
