Why it Matters
Hillary the Other Woman: A Political Memoir
Being the same age and from the same area as Bill Clinton, I remember hearing all the rumors, watching the conflicted reactions from the public, listening to the endless promises for a better tomorrow. HILLARY THE OTHER WOMAN is a book about much of America’s soul during our lifetime.
We love the image of the fictional small town, good-ole-boy who understands us, feels our pain and will speak for us. We can admire the stand-by-your-man, strong woman who will fight and defend the family. We want to believe and we forgive because boys will be boys, and we are seduced by promises and requests for forgiveness.
Put preconceived opinions away as you read this Political Memoir. The Clinton world began with Billy and Dolly; Hillary enters and we are invited into the creation of today's political dynasty. Each of the three began with great promise and vast abilities, but each person had many deep flaws that became self-destructive. Time brought some changes to each, but the question facing the reader today is not about the past triangle, it is about our future.
The history of HILLARY THE OTHER WOMAN would not be important except we are now being asked to “just trust me” one more time, to look at the record and believe one more time. It is time we seriously take a look at the record, ask questions and demand why so much of the record has become smoke and “what difference does it make.”
Who is the real Hillary? It’s past time we required an answer and not just a self-serving comment changing the subject.
Who are we in 2016? Are we still the America that looks for promises, hope, a better tomorrow or have we become cynical with a what difference does it make attitude? HILLARY THE OTHER WOMAN is a story about power and money -- how we see that story may define who we are today and what will come tomorrow.
