A Hillary supporter posted this detailed comment after I charged that she accomplished next to nothing as Senator.

Editor's notes:    I made three comments to the following list before I stumbled onto the same list on the web.  As it turns out,  the following 14 points,  in defense of Hillary's record,  were a cut and paste plagiarism sent to my comment line.  Embellishment of Hillary's record is what this list is all about as can be seen in the first three statements.  Plagiarism is something else,  especially when the "author" is a college grad with a PhD in music.  Now we know why he went for a music degree;  his personal literary/critical thinking  skills are so poor that he cannot compete with folks who actually think for a living.
