Dose anyone actually think they are going to get away with the idea Hillary Clinton never accomplished anything? She is one of the American that heard what Mr. Trump said.
You don’t have to like Hillary Clinton or her ideas. I get it. She’s a Democrat, a progressive (in most eyes), and conservatives don’t like that. However, you cannot say she does not have any accomplishments. Here are just a few:
Adoption and Safe Families Act and the Foster Care Independence Act (click here)
State Children’s Health Insurance Program (click here)
One of Clinton’s signature claims has come under fire from political foes, quoted by the Boston Globe, who say she doesn’t deserve credit for expanding federal health insurance for millions of children.
We review the record and conclude that she deserves plenty of credit, both for the passage of the SCHIP legislation and for pushing outreach efforts to translate the law into reality....
Hillary Clinton supporters know as soon as she sneezes she lied about it. That is SOP with Hillary Clinton. She is so qualified and able to carry out very responsible positions she is ridiculed for her ambitions and loyalty TO THE MIDDLE CLASS of the USA.
...Successfully fought to increase research funding (click here) for prostate cancer and asthma at the National Institute of Health (NIH). She spearheaded investigations into mental illness plaguing veterans of the Gulf War; we now have a term for it — Gulf War Syndrome.
At the Department of Justice, she helped create the office on Violence Against Women. She was instrumental in securing over $21 billion in funding for the World Trade Center redevelopment. Took a leading role in the investigation of health consequences of first responders and drafted the first bill to compensate and offer the health services our first responders deserve (Clinton’s successor in the Senate, Kirsten Gillibrand, passed the bill).
She was instrumental in working out a bi-partisan compromise to address civil liberty abuses for the renewal of the U.S. Patriot Act. Proposed a revival of the New Deal-era Home Owners’ Loan Corporation to help homeowners refinance their mortgages in the wake of the 2008 financial disaster....
She as a major proponent of sensible diplomacy which brought about a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, and brokered human rights with Burma.
(Hillary) Clinton found high incidence of child mortality in African American children 500 times higher than other American children with asthma.
...Clinton may have underestimated (click here)
Asthma is a chronic lung disease — an inflammation of the airways that causes coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. Around 25 million Americans have asthma, and the rate of asthmatics has been steadily increasing since the early 1980s. While most asthmatics function normally, often using inhalers to aid them in their breathing, asthma attacks can present a serious danger, especially in young children.
A 2006 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study on childhood asthma data from 1980 to 2005 confirms Clinton’s claim almost verbatim: "Compared with white children, black children have a 260 percent higher ED (Emergency Department) visit rate, a 250 percent higher hospitalization rate, and a 500 percent higher death rate from asthma." (Clinton’s campaign confirmed that this was the source she had used.)
The report also notes that even though mortality rates from asthma have decreased since 1999 for children in general, no corresponding drop has been seen in the mortality rate of African-American children....

Oversaw free trade agreements with our allies such as Panama, Colombia, and South Korea.

Such initiatives such as PTT doesn't negotiate function so much as exploitation of USA markets of over 300 million people.)

...No senior U.S. official had visited the country in 50 years and Suu Kyi
had spent the last 15 of those under house arrest. The talks between the
U.S. secretary of state and the leading icon of Myanmar’s embattled
democracy movement became a powerful symbol of progress for a country
trying to climb out from under decades of political and economic
misrule....

The Clinton Foundation, founded by her and her husband, has improved the living conditions for nearly 400 million people in over 180 countries through its Initiative program.
She was and continues to be a role model for women all over the world. Additionally, she is respected when she states, "Human Rights are Women's Rights and Women's Rights are Human Rights." She was very outspoken in the international theater for recognition of girls and their ability to be educated to benefit their country.
She had a very demanding agenda as Secretary of State which included the release of Americans in Iranian jails.
Hillary Clinton has touched global history for decades and she has moved the USA politically most of her life. She is a great woman and I expect anyone who discusses her years dedicated to this country to respect that.
