From the Paper
" Hillary Rodham Clinton, in her book, It Takes a Village and Other Lessons Children Teach Us, attempts to please all of the people all of the time. Her position is that children are at risk in today's society from drugs, violence, premarital sex, a lack of health care, too much television, the education system, in general, from the social structure of society itself. Hillary Clinton, throughout the book, states the importance of a child having "good" parents, but she consistently promotes the idea of governmental programs replacing parental oversight of children. She wants to remove the responsibility and credit of raising good children from the parents and place it on the government and society. This duality, claiming that parents have the greatest impact on a child's life and stating that parents must relinquish control of their own children to society, which wishes to "help".."

From the Paper
"Even in a nation founded on the tradition of independence and self-sufficiency, the greater community has always been needed for survival. The pilgrims needed the Native-Americans, the frontier people needed their neighbors, people of the Great Depression needed the New Deal programs and America's children, especially poor children of all races and ethnicities,need more than just their primary caregivers -- they need a village. The old African proverb "It takes a village to raise a child" became popular in the United States when Hillary Rodham..."

She Takes a Village, 2008.
A review of of the writer's opinion of Alan Gottlieb's book "She Took a Village".

Abstract
The paper discusses and reviews Alan Gottlieb's book, "She Took a Village", which took its title from Hillary Clinton's book, "It Takes a Village". The paper relates that Gottlieb's book was written during the time of speculation that Hillary Clinton would run for president at some point, and Gottlieb's book was largely an effort to forestall such an eventuality by raising all of the supposed scandals surrounding the Clintons, including a variety of unsubstantiated claims about criminal activity, fraud, drug-dealing, and even murder. The writer concludes that the basic details of Hillary Rodham Clinton's life may shape Gottlieb's book, but the reader learns little of fact about her or her husband and much more about the lengths to which conspiracy theorists will go to support their pet theories.
From the Paper
"Most of the hints at charges in this book are of the same stamp, from Whitewater to the death of Vincent Foster. Gottlieb is rehashing a lot of new accounts and similar data, and authorities with far more experience and far greater resources looked into these various issues and found no evidence of Clinton criminality at all. As with most conspiracy theorists, Gottlieb finds the absence of evidence to be evidence in itself. The focus of this book is supposed to be on Hillary Rodham Clinton, but for much of the book, the focus is on the Clintons and their supposed secret gang of operatives who carry out their every whim."

Electing Hillary Rodham Clinton, 2002.
A review of the election campaign of Hillary Clinton, to the Senate.

Abstract
This paper reviews the strategy used by Hillary Clinton in getting elected to the United States senate. The writer studies this historic episode because Hillary Rodham Clinton is the only first lady ever to run for such a high office, and this fact alone draws considerable media and other attention. The paper explores women in politics and leadership before looking specifically the the case of Hillary Clinton. The writer includes a background into her politics, family life and values. The paper then explores the needs of the state of New York and the ability of Clinton to meet those needs.
From the Paper
"Hillary Rodham Clinton herself is a lightning rod for conservative and Republican political activists and for some voters, and this fact cannot be ignored. This is true not only because of a certain anger at the personal behavior of her husband but also because the Clintons have been demonized by the opposition since Bill Clinton was first elected President, and even before that in Arkansas. One might think that as the wronged wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton would gain more sympathy, but instead her status as victim is turned into a warped idea of how evil she and her husband are."

Abstract
Prevailing political theories do not completely capture the opportunities and obstacles facing Hillary Rodham Clinton, for no woman in American politics has ever been a powerful and influential First Lady, a prominent senator from a major state, and an acknowledged front-runner for the Presidency. In addition to this unique combination of accomplishments, no woman in American politics has ever been demonized by political opponents like Mrs. Clinton has, for she has been relentlessly slandered by conservatives as a dangerous radical and has been accused of criminal conduct ranging from Whitewater fraud to the murder of Vince Foster. This paper presents a political profile of Hillary Rodham Clinton and examines what opportunities and obstacles lay ahead for her in her political life.

Abstract
The paper discusses how the news of a possible candidacy from Hillary Clinton in the presidential elections has created a media frenzy, polarizing the public opinion into supporters and opponents. The paper further discusses Clinton's possible opponent, Condaleeza Rice. The paper concludes that, while Dr. Rice could boast coordinating the American foreign policy in the 2004-2008 period, Hillary Clinton will encourage people to vote for her with slogans emphasizing her care for the American public. The writer proposes that her status as New York senator will help her in this sense.
From the Paper
"Hillary Clinton is following in the great procession of female politicians who have made history, like Indira Gandhi, Margaret Thatcher or Angela Merkel more recently. Starting as a successful lawyer and passing through the First Lady of the Untied States, she is now a political figure on her own and with significant chances of being taken into consideration for the highest position in US."

From the Paper
"Even as early as former president Bill Clinton's inauguration in 1993, Hillary Clinton was a force to contend with. Early on, Mrs. Clinton received serious criticism for expanding the First Lady's role in the White House. Despite this criticism, as well as criticism on personal issues, Mrs. Clinton's strength of will and determination to succeed have contributed to the achievements that have led to her current position. These factors also contribute to the possible Democratic nomination of Hillary Clinton for presidential candidate."

Defining Leadership: Hillary Clinton, 2008.
An analysis of the leadership traits exemplified in Hillary Clinton.
1,836 words (approx. 7.3 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 58.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper discusses three factors that define leadership and the traits that are associated with them. The author then examines Hillary Clinton and her leadership, and demonstrates how she possesses these traits and has shown herself to excel in all three areas of leadership.
From the Paper
"Another trait that defines Hillary is her compassion; this has manifested itself in almost all of her policy decisions. Hillary, as one of the most powerful lawyers in the United States as well as the first lady of Arkansas, launched and spearheaded many different initiatives to improve children education and healthcare. While serving as the First Lady of the United States, she pushed for a national level "universal health care system". These are all emblematic of her compassion for others. Compassion is one of the lynch pins for her leadership, because it allows her supporters to sympathize and morally identify with her causes. Compassion, combined with her fearless pursuit of both justice and reform, has enabled Clinton to become one of the most emblematic leaders of the United States. Personality traits such as fearlessness define a leader and impact every level of their decision making and responses."

Abstract
Through a reading of her memoir "Living History", this paper assesses Clinton?s rise to leadership and her various strengths and weaknesses as a leader. The first part of the paper studies the first leadership roles of the young Hillary. The next part then evaluates Clinton?s actions in light of the various theories discussed in Peter G. Northouse?s "Leadership" and Lee G. Bolman?s "Reframing Organizations". The next parts examine how she has gone on assuming new roles, from her political conversion to a Democrat and her early career as a lawyer in Arkansas. Much of the paper is necessarily devoted to her leadership role as the First Lady amid much scandal, public adulation, and public censure. In the last section, the paper summarizes how the theories on leadership help shed light on the processes and decisions made by Clinton through various points in her career.
From the Paper
"Unlike them, Clinton was clearly not interested in this delicate, secondary form of leadership. Rather, she became an active participant in several of her husband?s most important campaigns ? from health care to welfare reform. When her term as First Lady ended, she extended her leadership role further in her new position as New York?s junior senator."

From the Paper
"Bill and Hillary Clinton:
A Comparative Study of Contrasting Leadership Styles
For eight years, Bill and Hillary Clinton occupied center stage in American political life, he as President of the United States and she as a First Lady with more direct involvement in the operation of the Administration than most other similarly situated women had ever before enjoyed (Andersen, 1999). The Clintons were from substantially different socioeconomic and regional backgrounds: she was the daughter of upper-middle-class Midwesterners, and he the son of a divorced and twice-married Arkansas mother (Andersen, 1999). Together, in the Arkansas governor?s mansion and the White House, they created a leadership and governing style in which both played a critical part ? even though ..."

From the Paper
"Hillary Rodham Clinton has been the subject of admiration and criticism since Bill Clinton's election to the presidency in 1992. To some, she is representative of a new generation of women who work in white collar jobs (she was an attorney prior to becoming First Lady) and have separate career interests from their husbands. Although she has given up her legal practice since becoming First Lady, it is her actions and activities that are at the heart of the controversy which has dogged the president since he took office (with Congressional hearings that have lasted longer than the Watergate incident). Vilified by some as betraying traditional family values and held up as an example to young American women by others, Hillary Rodham Clinton is in the news perhaps more often than any other First Lady has been.

From the Paper
"The purpose of this research is to compare two works that deal with modern peasants in the People's Republic of China. One book, China's Urban Villagers, is written by a prominent American anthropologist, Norman Chance; the other book, The Dragon's Village, is by Yuan-Tsung Chen, who spent many years working with Chinese peasants.
Chance's book is divided into chapters that deal with specific areas of life. The introduction is well written and covers the subject of background quite well in its limited space. One interesting part concerns the disruption caused in Chinese society by foreign capital in the 19th century when at the same time so much foreign capital was flowing into the United States with such different results. Chance's description of the difference between a peasant (a person who grows food for ..."

"Condi vs. Hillary", 2007.
An analysis of the book, "Condi vs. Hillary: The Next Great Presidential Race", by Dick Morris and Eileen McGann.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper discusses the book, "Condi vs. Hillary", which claims to explore the likelihood of a remarkable Presidential race - one in which both Democratic and Republican parties would pick female candidates. The paper explores how, in this scenario, Hillary Rodham Clinton would run on the Democratic ticket while Condaleezza Rice would run for the Republicans. The writer proposes that the authors might well have good reason to believe their core assumptions, however, their book is too biased to provide useful information about either potential candidate. The paper concludes that the real problem with this book is that in the authors' decision to vilify Ms. Clinton and sanctify Ms. Rice, they have reduced both women to two-dimensional caricatures.
From the Paper
"The list is peppered with biased comments such as "criminalizing harm to a fetus during an attack on the mother" (an abortion issue) and "At every chance, she voted to cut the amount of the tax reductions Bush proposed." Now, at least, we know Ms. Clinton's crime: she is a Democrat. But this raises a question: if the co-author Morris is so opposed to Democratic political views, why did he serve as political consultant to Bill Clinton for 20 years?"
