Erica Jong tries to view Hillary Clinton with a realistic perspective (Snippet):

"Nothing she did was ever enough to stop her detractors. Supporting a politician husband by being a successful lawyer, raising a terrific daughter, saving her marriage when the love of her life publicly humiliated her -- these are things that would be considered enormously admirable in most politicians and public figures. But because she's a white woman, she's been pilloried for them. "She's had to endure nutcrackers made in her image, insults about the shape of her ankles and nasty cracks from mediocrities in the media like Rush Limbaugh, Chris Matthews and Kristol. "When she decided to run for the Senate she was called a carpetbagger. When she won the hearts of her most conservative constituents by supporting their actual needs, the same poisonous pundits who said it couldn't be done attacked her."

Like Hillary, Obama has had to endure the prejudices of being other than a white male. Do all the other trials and tribulations that are exclusive to Hillary's history make her a better, more prepared candidate for President? I think that is the most important question for Democratic voters.
