On Thursday, The Hill<\/a> reported that on May 25th the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study<\/a> at Harvard University was going to present Hillary Clinton<\/a> an award that recognizes individuals who have had a “transformative impact” on society. I assume the award may be conditional based on whether or not she is in jail by then.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

\u201cHillary Clinton\u2019s life and career are an inspiration to people around the world,\u201d Radcliffe Institute Dean Lizabeth Cohen<\/a>, who teaches American<\/a> studies at Harvard, said in the press release.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWhether in Arkansas, Washington, D.C., New York state<\/a> or traveling around the globe as secretary of State,\u201d Cohen said in the statement. \u201cSecretary Clinton has provided a model of what it takes to transform society, often under scrutiny \u2014 tireless effort, toughness amid the political fray, and an enduring capacity to envision a better future.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The event in May will feature a tribute to Clinton delivered by friend, former secretary of State and fellow Radcliffe medalist Madeleine Albright, according to the release, as well as a conversation between Clinton and Massachusetts Attorney General<\/a> Maura Healey<\/a> (D).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Clinton, who ran unsuccessfully against President Trump<\/a><\/span> in 2016, was the first woman to secure a nomination for president from a major political party in the United States<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the statement, Radcliffe added that Clinton was a “skilled legislator,\u201d and \u201can advocate of American leadership to create a world in which states live up to their responsibilities.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe commend Secretary Clinton for her accomplishments in the public sphere as a champion for human rights and the welfare of all,” Cohen said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, Mrs. Clinton was the first woman to run for President. Based on what? She was elected a Senator from New York on the basis of her husband’s popularity. She rigged the Democratic primary election<\/a> to become the candidate. The jury is still out on the corruption in the Clinton Foundation<\/a> (although that may come to a head very soon). She obviously mishandled classified information in a way that would have put other people in prison. The list of scandals that has followed the Clintons since the 1990’s is almost endless. And this is the woman Harvard is choosing to honor.<\/p>\n

I will admit that Hillary Clinton has been transformative in that she has transformed the meaning of the word ethical.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
