In reply to the discussion: How can thoughtful people even *consider* Hillary for President? [View all]lewebley3
(3,412 posts)294. Hillary and Bill were in debt when they left the White House: You are the one implying things!
If Bill and Hillary were not successful in making money you
would be calling them losers, and there is nothing
wrong with making money.
Hillary is her own person, and given that she will be running
for her last office, there is no pressure that she could
be put under.
