With her childhood dreams
unattainable, Hillary, calculated that her success might best be
realized by taking that old-fashioned, tried-and-true path -- marry
a potentially successful dude. |
|
Having failed to become an
astronaut, athlete, doctor, or scientist, she turned to selling her
herself into matrimony. |
|
Speaking at a Purchase
College symposium on the 1972 law that made
sex discrimination in educational
programs that receive federal funding illegal,
Hillary said, "I tried everything.
I ran every race, and if I was really lucky I finished second to
last... I couldn't jump, I couldn't run, I
couldn't swim." |
|
Then, in quest of a career, she
said, "So I wrote
to NASA and said, "How do I sign up to be
an astronaut?'... And they wrote back very
politely and said, 'We don't take girls.'" |
|
Then, proceeding down her list of
potential careers, she thought of medicine. She reported, "I
volunteered at the hospital but kept getting lightheaded and woozy
when I saw anyone in any kind of distress". |
|
Hillary also
abandoned hopes of becoming a scientist or mathematician.
Her grades in science and math were not adequate for those genuinely
brainy careers for truly smart, analytical people. She validated the
fact -- which most students know --
that, in the general case, girls are not as good as boys in math and science. |
|
So
Miss Hillary was stuck with
a career path learned
at her family's dinner table. She reports that, "We had the
most lively, contentious dinner table conversations that probably
anybody has endured." Mrs. Clinton
recalled her family's mealtime public
policy debates, saying "I thought,
well, I do like to study what goes on in the world around me, I
adore government as a subject in school, I'm very interested in
politics and history. So I went to law school."
|
|
And now the American people are
stuck with the product of that default career search. The American
people are the victims of her her fifth choice -- to rule and
lecture to Americans on how to live and what to not dare to do. |
