Tom. You don't know much about HC then. She's far better educated than Thatcher. Clinton has did her undergraduate degree at Swarthmore, where she was President of the Young Republicans club. She also earned a Juris Doctrate at Yale and also did post graduate studies at Yale. A BS in Chemistry is a fine degree but it's not even close to the same level as a JD from Yale.
In addition Clinton was a successful practicing attorney, who earned full partnership at the Rose Law Firm, and part time graduate school instructor until 1992. She wasn't even really involved in politics until Bill ran for POTUS in 92. When I met her in late 1990 she was still a practicing attorney and not a politician.
