The Week Of Asking About The Meaning Of Life: Letter to Hillary Clinton

Yes, she was the First Lady for eight years. And yes, she was a New York state senator for eight years. And yes, she was the almost-Democratic presidential nominee during this past election. And yes, she is the 67th United States Secretary of State.

But despite everything she's done in law and government and all the professional and personal steps she's taken that are truly trailblazing for women, to a lot of people, she will always be the idiot who took back her husband after he got a blow job from Monica Lewinsky.

I imagine that it's not always easy to be Hillary Clinton. People have a lot of opinions about you, even though most have never come face-to-face with you. You have to have a thick skin. You have to be brave when on those occasions that you don't feel brave.

What has Hillary learned about life over the years? Are there things she would change if she had them to do over? As Oprah says, "what does she know for sure?"
