No, don't go back to her college days. I want something RECENT. What has Hillary Clinton done as a member of government that proves she's smarter than Sarah Palin.

Surely you can find SOMETHING....

I don't think you can "prove" such things. Intelligence is a rather subjective judgement. Even if they both sat down and took the same IQ test, it wouldn't be conclusive "proof".



But I do think that Hillary seems smarter than Sarah Palin. She seems to have more of a handle on things and is able to talk to the media without descending into the absurdities and half-truths that Palin does. But it may be that Hillary is just better at acting smart than SP is. Who knows?

What has she done to prove she is smarter? Let's see: Russian "reset button" (mistranslated to boot); the 2012 Benghazi attack ("What difference does it make?"); downplaying the importance of human rights in China (to the detriment of the Chinese); the establishment of fascism in Honduras. Need I go on?



Palin was made to seem to be an incompetent boob by the media. Of course, she - not Clinton nor Obama - predicted a conflict with Russia. Then again, she could see Russia from her state.



In sum, you can not "prove" Clinton smarter than Palin for one good reason - - she isn't.

Just about anything a Secretary of State does on a daily basis requires more intelligence and skill than Palin possesses. And why are you limiting the discussion to their non-academic careers?

I think the question should be, What has Hillary done in her Career that would make her a good Candidate for Presidency?



NOTHING

If she SAYS she's smarter, then that's proof enough... for her!





One difference between conservatives and liberals: Conservatives are guided by TRUTH. Liberals try to GUIDE the Truth.



Republican since before she was born… and PROUD of it.

She hit that reset button with the Russians and course told the parents of the Ameircan killed in Libya ''we are going to get that man who made that video'' and of course she stood by her man during that vast right wing conspiracy
