Hillary Clinton .....

In the book living history Hillary describes many parts of her life before running for president. In the most recent section of the book i read Hillary tells her readers about her trip to Arkansas, and what became of it. After Hillary and Bill returned from Europe they went on a trip to Bills hometown of Arkansas. There Hillary would meet his mother, but not his father because he had died in a car accident on the way to visit Virginia Bill's mother. After her husbands death Virgina moved to New Orleans to become an nurse anesthetist so she could make enough money to support her and her child. After getting her degree Virginia moved back to Hope, Arkansas to raise Bill. Virginia married again to an abusive alcoholic, Bill protected his mother and brother from his stepfather as much as he could. Later on Roger died from cancer. Later on Virginia remarried man named Jeff. When Hillary first met Virginia, Virginia did not like her at all, but Jeff encouraged Hillary and Bill's relationship even though Virginia did not approve, but later on Virginia came to accept their relationship because her and Hillary had one very important thing in common they apparently both loved Bill. Hillary later on left Bill so he could continue his teachings in Arkansas to work for the newly made Children's Defense Fund. There she did alot of work with juveniles and tried to help them because they were put in the same cells as mass murders and rapists even though they had only committed small crimes like stealing or trespassing, the organization led an effort to try to separate the juveniles from the other criminals, they also tried to provide them with more protection. Also at the CDF Hillary took surveys of disabled children with mental and physical disabilities who did not attend school. Hillary learned from these children that they really wanted to go to school but because of their disabilities they couldn't. Due to the survey congress passed the Education For All Handicapped Children Act this bill made getting an education accessible for all children with any kind of handicap. Bill later on ran for congress, he was also offered a job to join an impeachment staff, but Bill turned it down to run for congress. Since Bill did not take the job Hillary was the next one to be offered it, and she took it.

I think that its really nice of Bill to care about Hillary so much. The fact that they had just returned from Europe and hes already taking her on another trip to visit his family shows he really cares for her which is sweet. Its really sad that Bill never got to meet his real father and had to suffer because of his stepfather. I don't think that would be a good experience of having a father. Its sad that all three of Virginia's husbands died, she was a widow three times which is even more sad. I cant believe Jeff died that's horrible especially because he was the only real father Bill had ever known and he was so kind to everyone including Hillary. Its good that Virginia came to except Hillary though because obviously Bill and Hillary's relationship wouldn't work very well if Bill's mother didn't like her. Its really great that Hillary works for such great organizations. I agree that children who commit small crimes should defiantly not be placed in the same cells as major criminals. Its good that the CDF tried to change that so children could be separated from others and have more protection. Its also terrible that handicapped children couldn't attend school back then, its really good that congress passed that bill because i think everyone deserves an education no matter who they are or if they have problems or not. Running for congress is a really good start for a political career, i think it's really good that Bill did that, even though he turned down a great opportunity to do so. It's so funny that after bill turned down the job offer Hillary got the same one. That's a pretty weird coincidence. It's good she took the job though because that's a really good start for her career to.

On the Waterfront (Answer to blog Question.)

In the movie On The Waterfront the beliefs of the characters are very different when it comes to what the difference is between a traitor and a whistle blower, or a "stool pigeon" and an "informant on criminal activity" are. Terry Malloy one of the main characters is a former boxer, he works for Johnny Friendly who is the leader of the local union which is basically the mob. Terry is torn between telling the truth about Joeys murder for his new found love Edie and keeping it a secret for his own and his brother Charlies sake. In the beginning of the movie Terry covers for the mob because he believes at that moment what they did was the right thing, in a way by keeping this secret Terry was protecting himself, and his brother from getting in trouble because they were involved with joeys death. Also he felt that if Edie knew the truth she would never forgive him. Later on in the movie after Terry meets Edie and falls in love with her he decides he needs to tell the truth about Joeys death, even though he risks their relationship, he felt he needed to tell the truth for Edie's sake because it meant alot to her. Edie Doyle was Joey Doyle's sister in the movie. After Joey was killed she decided to enlist the help of the priest and investigate Joys murder herself because everyone was to scared to go against the mob, no one else was willing to help, even the police. Edie believed that the truth should be told no matter what it was. She convinced Terry to testify against Johnny Friendly in Joeys murder trial. When the mob found out about this they tried to get Charlie, Terry's brother to kill him. Like Edie the priest also believed that the truth should be told. Even though like Joey who had told on the mob wound up dead, anyone who told on them would also be in grave danger. Most of the characters in the movie wanted the truth and encouraged people to come clean, except the people in the mob. But most of the characters were to scared to go against the mob considering they knew what would happen to them if they did. But some brave characters like Terry told the truth and was in a way rewarded for it, but that truth caused him to loose alot including his own brother, who was killed because he refused to kill Terry. Even though the truth about Joey caused many losses there were also many gains. Truth beats lies and secrets.

I think a person is being a tattle tale when they tell on another for doing something very insignificant. Like if a person were to take your pencil and you then told the teacher. That would be pointless because you'll gain nothing from telling except maybe getting your pencil back and being made fun of by other students. When someone is truly speaking out against improper behavior it would be about something that really matter to you and hurts you alot. Like if someone makes fun of your race or religion. Compared to having your pencil stolen being made fun of for those things is very important because it could really hurt someone and should not be done. If something really matters to you then i think it should be reported, but if it matters to you and is really insignificant it should be dealt with by yourself because its pretty easy to do most of the time, or you could just ignore the problem completely.

Hillary Goes To Yale/Meets Bill

Hillary went to Yale's law school after graduating from her previous school, she had to take out many student loans and used her full scholarship from her previous school given to her so she could have the opprotunity to go to graduate school. When she was at yale many opprotunities were put out infront of her but she chose to help out her freind who had started a investagation sort of thing into the lives of migrants. Hilary took this job even though she was secifically told she was not going to get paid (Hillary was in desperate need of money to pay off her school lones). Hillary was assined to study and talk to the children of the migrant workers. She has some previous experience of this when her and some freinds were younger they babysat for the migrant workers children. Hillary remembered when she was babysitting this one young girl that her and her family were going to return to mexico so she could get confirmed, but they may of had to stay longer because they needed to work to get enough money to buy her a white dress so she could get confirmed. Hillary then went home and told her mother about this girl and her troubles, then her mother took hillary and bought a very nice white dress for the litte girl so she could go back and get confirmed on time. Hillary did her job very well and continued it for a long time.
Hillary first saw bill when he had just arrived at yale after spending 2 years at oxford. She noticed him alot in his first few days back, she also noticed how he stared at her every time he saw her. At the time she had a boy freind but she still went for Bill. They were formally introduced when hillary saw him looking at her in the library she decided to go up to him and introduce herself. She was in love with him from that moment on. Hillary broke up with her boy for him. She liked how Bill wanted to get to know the real her. When they graduated from yale he got many opprotunities to go places and help out with political campaighns and stuff but since he didnt want to loose Hillary he followed her to California. They got a realy small messed up appartment that was like falling appart. They had to stuff the walls with newspaper so that wind couldent go in. After that they moved back to new heaven and continued their life there for the time being. I think its realy sweet that bill loved hillary so much that he was willing to give up so many opprotunities just so he could be with her. Also i think its a good thing hillary left her previous boyfreind for bill. Its realy nice that hillary was willing to give up her chance of making money to pay off her debts just so she could do somthing she loved to do and help out a freind this shows how kind and generous she realy is and how she would put others infront of her own needs any day. She is a very kinde positive person.

All My Sons

In the play All My Sons most of the characters in the play decide that family needs come before the needs of the society. Many of the characters take risks just to get their families ahead. Joe Keller wen as far as sending cracked plane parts to the military. This caused 21 deaths and his partner in the business was accused of murder so was joe but of course he got away with it by lying and getting his wife to go along with his lies. This business made him alot of money, but many people got hurt while he was making his fortune.

I think its wrong to hurt so many people just to get ahead and make money, but in some ways what Joe did was right because he did it to help his family and give them what they want. This in a way is very noble. But all the people that died because of Joe's need for money is terrible so many deaths could of been prevented if joe had just put others ahead of his own needs. If he had considered the soldiers safty over his need for money no one would of died because of defective planes, and Joe could of started over and not have so many deaths on his chest.

Hillary Clintons Colege life

In the part of the book i just read Hillary tells about her experiences of going to Wellesley which is a all girls colege. She went their with her fathers political beliefs and her mothers strenth. During her first year there she made many freinds. Theese freindships apparently continued so far throughout her life which is very good. Most of her freinds majored in art. Hillary was involved in many clubs and activities. She was the presedent of the Republican party supporters group at her colege, but when her political views changed from Republican to more liberal she stepped down as the president and her vice president took over with her boyfreind. Hillary also applied for a program internship in washington this program was all about how the government worked. Due to her fathers request that she continue her republican views she ended up reporting to a group of people headed by the minority leader Gerald ford. She got to pose for many photoes with the congress people. Her father realy appretiated theese photos especially the one with president ford. Also she tells about the part when her colege becomes segragated and she realizes that she is just like the african americans exept for the colors of their skin.

Hillary C !!!!!! :)

The book I'm reading is called Living History by Hillary Clinton. So far in this book i have read about her interesting family history. I learned that her parents were just a normal middle class family living in Chicago. Her mom Dorothy was born in Chicago in 1919 her father was a firefighter and her mother was a housewife. Dorothy's mother Della abandond Dorothy when she was 2-3 years old sending her to California to live with her grandparents who were crazy. Dorothy's Grandfather left her with her grandma who didn't let her do anything like hang out with friends or even go out. One time when Dorothy was caught trick-or-treating with some of her school freinds she was locked up in her room for a whole year not allowed to do anything but go to school. She wasn't even allowed to eat in the kitchen she had to stay by herself in her room. This was stopped by Emma's sister when she came to visit them one time. Dorothy stayed in California for ten years never seeing or hearing from her mother and father. Dorothy could no longer stand to live with Emma so she found a job as a live in babysitter and only had to pay 3 dollars a week for room and board as long as she helped out. When Dorothy graduated from high school she made plans to go to college in California. Della randomly spoke to her for the first time in 10 years asking her to go to Chicago and now that she had been remarried her new housband would pay for Dorothy to go to college in Chicago. This was a lie just to get Dorothy to help around the house. Dorothy got a job and a small apartment and payed for her own college. Later on in Dorothys life in Chicago she would meet her future housband (Hillarys father Hugh Rodham).
Hugh had a much simpler life then Dorothy. He grew up with both of his parents Hannah and Hugh Sr. Hannah was a very stubborn person. When Hillary's dad Hugh had hitched a ride on a horse drawn cart and a tractor hit into it crushing his legs she quickly rushed over to the hospital and when she found out that he was going to have his legs amputated she refused to let them do that. She rushed into the opperating room and forced them to call her brother in law. This saved Hughs legs and he thanks his Hannah for this. Hugh had an older and a younger brother. Russel the younger brother stayed with Hillary and her family for some time after Hugh found him trying to hang himself in his parents attic. Russel later died in a fire caused by a cigarette. Hugh later got a job selling drapery fabrics around the midwest. When Dorothy, Hillary's mother, was applying for a job as a clerk typist at a textile company she met Hugh and they later got married. Hillary is one of three kids she has 2 brothers. Her child hood was very interesting. Her father taught them to be very careful with their money and not waste things. Apparently, to this day Hillary still saves uneaten olives by putting them back in the jar and even saves the very small pieces of cheese. Hillary supported the Cubs and when the White Sox came around the Yankees became her back up team. She was a girl scout and made many community projects to raise money for various things. She also had jobs throughout the summer and the school year. One summer she worked as a supervisor in a local park a few miles away from her house. Since her father left for work before she did she was forced to pull a cart with all the equiptment (bats,balls,gloves etc...) all the way to the park back and forth every day. Her father drilled her and made her learn how to do things herself even if it meant waking up a few hours before school so he could quiz her on the test material. Even though he was strict he always meant well. Hillary also learned how to stick up for herself but suprisingly not by her father. Her mother taught her this after noticing how Hillary would run inside crying quickly after first going outside to play. Her mother said to her "Go back out there and if Suzy hits you, you have my premission to hit her back". I guess Hillary did this because moments later she came inside saying "i can play with the boys now and Suzy will be my freind!". Hillary's childhood started her life out in a very positive way due to her encouraging parents.
