Following the September 11 attacks, she voted to approve the War in Afghanistan. She also voted for the Iraq Resolution (which she later regretted), but subsequently sought to hasten the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq and opposed the Iraq War troop surge Mementos of Hillary Rodham’s early life are shown at the of 2007 (which she later praised).

Hillary Rodham and Bill Clinton bought a house in Fayet- teville in the summer of 1975, and Hillary finally agreed to marry Bill.[68] Their wedding took place on Octo- ber 11, 1975, in a Methodist ceremony in their living room.[69] A story about the marriage in the Arkansas Gazette indicated that she was retaining the name Hillary Rodham.[69][70] The motivation was to keep the cou- ple’s professional lives separate and avoid apparent con- flicts of interest and because, as she told a friend at the time, “it showed that I was still me.”[71] The decision did upset both their mothers.[72] Bill Clinton had lost the congressional race in 1974, but in November 1976 was elected Arkansas Attorney General, and so the cou- [73] Hillary Rodham Clinton, 1992 ple moved to the state capital of Little Rock.

Throughout her time in office, and in her final speech concluding it, Clinton viewed "smart power" as the strat- egy for asserting U.S. leadership and values – in a world of varied threats, weakened central governments, and increasingly important nongovernmental entities – by combining military hard power with diplomacy and U.S. soft power capacities in global economics, devel- opment aid, technology, creativity, and human rights advocacy.[341][366] As such, she became the first secre- tary of state to methodically implement the smart power approach.[367] In debates over use of military force, she Secretary Clinton meeting with Burmese democracy leader Aung was generally one of the more hawkish voices in the San Suu Kyi as part of her historic December 2011 visit to that administration.[245][330][351] She hailed the 2011 mili- country tary intervention in Libya as a case study in “smart [368] In a speech before the United Nations Human Rights power”, which David Ignatius has described as “the overused and vapid phrase meant to connote the kind of Council in December 2011, Clinton said that “Gay rights [369] are human rights”, and that the U.S. would advocate for power between hard and soft”. gay rights and legal protections of gays abroad.[352] The Clinton greatly expanded the State Department’s use of same period saw her overcome internal administration social media, including Facebook and Twitter, both to opposition with a direct appeal to Obama and stage the get its message out and to help empower citizens of first visit to Burma by a U.S. secretary of state since foreign countries vis-à-vis their governments.[341] And 1955, as she met with Burmese leaders as well as op- in the Mideast turmoil, Clinton particularly saw an op- position leader Aung San Suu Kyi and sought to support portunity to advance one of the central themes of her the 2011 Burmese democratic reforms.[353][354] She also tenure, the empowerment and welfare of women and girls said that the 21st century would be “America’s Pacific worldwide.[177] Moreover, in a formulation that became century”,[355] a declaration that was part of the Obama known as "the Hillary Doctrine", she viewed women’s 7.5 Benghazi attack and subsequent hearings 17

For example, outgo- ing Speaker of the House John Boehner had consistently expressed disgust at any suggestion that the hearings were politically motivated.[385] On October 22, 2015, Clinton testified at an all-day and nighttime session before the committee.[386][387] The hearing included many heated exchanges between committee members and Clinton, and between the committee members themselves.[386] Clinton was widely seen as emerging largely unscathed from the hearing, because of what the media perceived as a calm and unfazed demeanor, and a lengthy, meandering, repet- itive line of questioning from the committee.[388]

7.6 Email controversy

Main article: Hillary Clinton email controversy

A controversy arose in March 2015, when it was re- vealed by the State Department’s inspector general that Clinton had exclusively used personal email accounts on a non-government, privately maintained server—in lieu of email accounts maintained on federal govern- ment servers—when conducting official business during her tenure as Secretary of State. Some experts, of- ficials, members of Congress, and political opponents, Clinton in September 2014 contended that her use of private messaging system soft- ware and a private server violated State Department pro- tocols and procedures, and federal laws and regulations private citizen for the first time in thirty years.[399] She governing recordkeeping requirements. and her daughter joined her husband as named mem- bers of the Bill, Hillary & Foundation Nearly 2,100 emails contained in Clinton’s server were in 2013.[400] There she focused on early childhood devel- retroactively marked classified by the State Department, opment efforts, including an initiative called Too Small to though none of the emails were marked classified at the Fail and a $600 million initiative to encourage the enroll- time they were sent. 65 were later classified as “secret”, ment of girls in secondary schools worldwide, led by for- more than 20 were designated “top secret”, and the rest mer Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard.[400][401] She were later designated as “confidential”.[389][390][391] Gov- also led the No Ceilings: The Full Participation Project, ernment policy, reiterated in the nondisclosure agree- a partnership with the Bill and Melinda Gates Founda- ment signed by Clinton as part of gaining her security tion to gather and study data on the progress of women clearance, is that sensitive information should be con- and girls around the world since the Beijing conference sidered and handled as classified even if not marked in 1995;[402] its March 2015 report said that while “There as such.[392] After allegations were raised that some of has never been a better time in history to be born a woman the emails in question fell into the so-called “born clas- ... this data shows just how far we still have to go.”[403] sified” category, an FBI probe was initiated regarding The foundation began accepting new donations from for- how classified information was handled on the Clinton eign governments, which it had stopped doing while she server.[393][394][395][396] was secretary.[nb 15] The controversy occurred against the backdrop of She began work on another volume of memoirs, and Clinton’s 2016 presidential election campaign and began making appearances on the paid speaking cir- hearings held by the House Select Committee on cuit, receiving about $200,000 per engagement, as Benghazi.[397][398] well as making some unpaid speeches on behalf of the foundation.[406] For the fifteen months ending in March 2015, Clinton earned over $11 million from her 8 Clinton Foundation speeches.[407] For the overall period 2007–14, the Clin- tons earned almost $141 million, paid some $56 million Main article: Clinton Foundation in federal and state taxes, and donated about $15 million When Clinton left the State Department she became a to charity.[408] As of 2015, she was estimated to be worth 19

placed her as the 32nd-most liberal senator in 2006 and 16th-most liberal senator in 2007.[426] A 2004 analysis by political scientists Joshua D. Clinton of Princeton Uni- versity and Simon Jackman and Doug Rivers of Stanford University found her to be likely the sixth-to-eighth-most liberal senator.[427] The Almanac of American Politics, edited by Michael Barone and Richard E. Cohen, rated her votes from 2003 through 2006 as liberal or conser- vative, with 100 as the highest rating, in three areas: Economic, Social, and Foreign. Averaged for the four years, the ratings are: Economic = 75 liberal, 23 conser- vative; Social = 83 liberal, 6 conservative; Foreign = 66 liberal, 30 conservative. Total average = 75 liberal, 20 conservative.[nb 16] Organizations have also attempted to give newer assess- ments of Clinton once she reentered elective politics in Clinton in February 2011 2015.

Part Deux, in which all the female characters were given the middle name “Rodham"; see IMDB entry.) She has authored all of her books under that name.
