The above sources discuss numerous books that have been written about Bill & Hillary Clinton.

Most are negative, but most agree that Bill is a charismatic genius and HIllary is a top organizer.

From all that, one word keeps piping up COMPLICATED. Both are just a bit beyond description. Their relationship to each other is more smoke and haze, not mirrors. Everything that can be said about them has, so it is at this time a guess that it appears that Hillary will get the Democratic nomination and will probably lose in the general elect ion.. If that is the case,

The USA can be assured that Yanks have one and a half political parties.

Hillary should be easy to run against and the late's books come from journalists of whom Democrats like to read their newspapers. THE NEW YORK TIMES  and the WASHINGTON POST. Some of the information is new that Hillary negotiated with one of Bill's ex-lovers to keep quiet. That she is bi-sexual or gay. That she is ambitious to the point of being ruthless. On and on and on.

What is not clear is clarity. David Brock then a right wing hack writer went out to dig up as much dirt as possible and didn't find much. He was booted from the Right of Center writers.

For the Democratic party, they like the Clinton's and they can both help other candidates win, but they themselves are too controversial. Half the country knows who Hillary Clinton is and

they don't like her. The people of New York state where she is a senator like her tremendously.

The Clinton years looking back now look great. Prosperity with some soap opera mixed in best describes the times. .

The last 7 have been tough except that the economy looks good. Is it? Don't know. 70% of Americans don't like it.
