Talk:Hillary Rodham Clinton

From Corruptapedia

The more I think about it the more I think under Affiliations, her link to Bill Clinton should be added. I really think a stronger case can be made linking her affiliation with Clinton than most of her other affiliates who don't can't hold a candle to the corruption of Clinton. I don't think it's in the best interest for the integrity of the site, but I think it would be accurate.

• What is the best way, do you think, to display that affiliation? Her being married to Bill Clinton isn't, itself, corruption. However, anything that can be proven that she took part in as far as his own corruption goes would be good to outline. -Ardentfrost

I'm not sure, but I have her listed as being associated with certain groups (ACT) and there are quite a few others. But the most criminal involvement in her life is clearly her relationship with Bill Clinton and all the controversy that surrounds him and his office. She has said if she becomes president Bill Clinton would have a high ranking position. There's more scandals surrounding Bill Clinton than any other person she's involved in her campaign. I think listing Bill Clinton will be perceived as petty, but I think you could make a strong argument that it follows the theme of the site.

With Clinton comes Impeachment scandals, their history in Arkansas strong-arming people namely through use of the Arkansas state police, Enron, campaign donations, presidential pardons to people who donated to them and their foundations, hell even Huge Rodman (her brother) accepting payments to get Bill to pardon criminals, numerous sexual misconducts and possible perjury (definition of the word is), he was disbarred to practice law in Arkansas, etc to infinity...

If Bill weren't president and any politician were so closely connected to a man with that resume wouldn't it be classified as corrupt? But he was president, and as usual that kind of makes him untouchable. It would be seen as pulling the ... but but Clinton, card. I really think it would come off petty, but in reality her relationship with Bill is probably her biggest form of corruption.

• Make an entry for Bill Clinton, list all his stuff, and mention him in her article. We can make a place for spouses and family and stuff in the Infobox. She is OBVIOUSLY associated with him, but if you don't have specific evidence of her being involved with his scandals, it should probably stay in his own article -Ardentfrost

That's not a bad idea. The way I was looking at it was if say you took Bill Clinton's resume and pasted it on the spouse of say Bill Richardson's wife and Richardson was saying if he got elected he'd put her in high positions of power. While people who liked her might be ok with it, others would cry foul. But in the end, it does show that Bill himself is not free of corruption.
