Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton declined to answer her number one accomplishment as secretary of state when she was asked to name it during an interview on Thursday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room.”
Hillary was asked, “what would you say was your number one accomplishment as secretary of state?”
She responded, “You know, Wolf, I didn’t get to see all of their debate. But I saw enough of it to know that this is just the usual back and forth political attacks, the kinds of things you say when you’re on a debate stage and you really don’t have much else to say. I didn’t hear anything from any of them about how they’re going to make college more affordable, or get down student debt, or get equal pay for equal work for women, what they’re going to do to make sure that we deal with the challenges of raising incomes for hard-working people. So ,I don’t really pay a lot of attention to this kind of rhetoric that heats up the debate stage. They’re all trying to vie for more attention from, obviously, the Republican Party. I’m going to let them decide how best to do it. But if anybody’s interested, you know, there’s a long list about what I have done, and I’m very proud of it. You can read my book ‘Hard Choices,’ read about how I negotiated a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas. You can read about how I put together the coalition that led to international sanctions against Iran. You can read about what I did when I was First Lady, to get the Children’s Health Insurance Program, or as senator working across the aisle, on issues like getting better healthcare for our veterans. You know, this is just the silly season. I am looking forward to eventually debating on that stage whoever they finally nominate, once they get around to doing that.”
