How sexist was it for Bill Clinton to have pursued and reached the White House before Hillary?

Bill was a mere pedestrian policy junkie, a standard Democratic political manipulator -- far from an ideologue, working for lefty U.S. senator J. William Fulbright.

Bill muscled Hillary to the margins. Her resentment has been lurking just below the surface, occasionally colliding with her superficial lifelong loyalty to Bill, the stuff of political calculation far removed from any semblance of affection.

It should have been Hillary first, the wannabe radical, using a tactical map acquired from her presumed insider-status breezy correspondence with Saul Alinsky. Hillary should have been the anointed one to transfigure the nation from a land of rugged individuals to bands of dependent communitarians.

From her soaring oratory at the 1969 Wellesley College commencement, everybody knew Hillary was destined to be presidential timber. No mere drone was Hillary, as this excerpt takes flight with clarity, and elegance: “Within the context of a society that we perceive -- now we can talk about reality, and I would like to talk about reality sometime, authentic reality, inauthentic reality, and what we have to accept of what we see -- but our perception of it is that it hovers often between the possibility of disaster and the potentiality for imaginatively responding to men's needs.”

Well, not so fast. Of course Hillary was incoherent and vacuous then… nothing about her has changed in nearly half a century.

The systemic court-ordered weekend dumps of thousands of Hillary.Clinton.com emails now confirm what many wouldn’t admit but most of us knew for decades -- Hillary is not only an unrepentant, pathological liar, and a threat to national security, but above all else, supremely boring.

Yet Hillary can finally visualize her own presidential inauguration, with the increasingly senile and Viagra-veined Bill, on the sidelines. Of course she doesn’t seem to want to do any hard work to get there, nor come up with any plausible reason why someone should actually vote for her. 

Hillary’s finishes vs. men -- be it Bill, or Barack, John Kerry, and now Bernie Sanders last week, have the look of the perennial runner-up. Even Hillary’s cosmetic makeover to challenge Kerry in keeping up appearances failed, sneaking into Bergdorf Goodman for a $600 cut, blow, color, and perm, unable to unseat John Kerry’s $1,000 haircut in 2004 at Reagan National Airport.

Perhaps Hillary can claim outflanking John Kerry in one respect: Hillary was a more destructive secretary of state. Kerry’s failed diplomacy hasn’t killed anyone yet, unlike Hillary’s recklessness for which her legacy of Libya as a failed state can’t be airbrushed.  

Benghazi was only her most recent, indeed equally grievous fault. Her trophies include a dead diplomat and three combat vet operatives, along with Coptic Christians beheaded on a Libyan beach. If anyone is keeping score at home, Kerry’s weak showing only has his own broken leg on another vanity bike ride in Geneva. The damage from ISIS and Iranian/Syrian terror is still to be reckoned; until then, advantage Hillary.

Hillary’s isolated ambition has an abundance of foggy allusions, bereft of substance. When she takes a break from tale-spinning and diversionary tail -- and finger-wagging, she only serves up banalities about women’s’ economic freedom, formative education for children, and how private companies don’t create any jobs (except Goldman Sachs et al -- until their Clinton campaign infusions dry up).  Oh lest we forget, Hillary is a woman, and a grandmother. How distinguished…

Hillary’s social re-engineering plank apparently insists that “deep-seated cultural and religious beliefs have to change” concerning abortion. Of course, that means she believes the moral depravity of killing babies in utero -- anywhere, anytime -- to harvest, and sell fetal tissue and body parts, should become as commonplace as her evasions, and lies to everyone -- everywhere, anytime.

None of her economic proposals -- capital gains tax tiers, minimum wage hikes, renewable energy -- are grounded in economic literacy. Her tax proposal would paralyze mobility of capital, leading to the same stranding now plaguing offshore earnings -- which she says are obscene and unpatriotic. When the transcripts of her quarter-million dollar speeches to Goldman Sachs are leaked, mysteriously missing will be her own version of value-investing in more food stamps, free health care, and tuition-free college -- all paid for by permanent PICC drains from the Goldman Sachs partners’ lymph glands.

So maybe she has finally figured out how to beat John Kerry, with such a vulgar display of newfound wealth. Well, maybe not, as she still hasn’t topped Kerry’s $7 million yacht built in New Zealand, stiffing New England boat builders. No matter: next up, how to one-up Barack Obama and prove to Bill she should have been first.

Sustaining Obama’s status quo should be easy, but how can Hillary surmount Obama’s tenure with his destructive legacy leaving even the prospect for redemption from future historians, barren?

Trust in the federal government -- big or small -- has been forfeited; serial lying to Congress, the Courts, and the American people has become standard fare, with impunity. Not a problem for Hillary, whose dishonesty merits lifetime accreditation.

Religious liberty has been compromised, stifled, and denied; the nation’s sovereignty via open borders has been forsaken; lawbreaking illegal immigrants have been welcomed, given sanctuary, and revered.

Radical Islamic terrorists have been met with cowardice, denial, and duplicity; Obama and Hillary brazenly lied about the Benghazi catastrophe repeatedly to Congress, the nation, and the victim’s families; five 9/11 terrorists were gleefully swapped for a U.S. Army deserter.

Iranian state sponsored proxy wars -- and its future ballistic missile attack on Israel -- have been financed and abetted by a capitulating treaty designed to win a future UN Secretariat rather than deploy any serious U.S. national security measures to degrade and destroy Iran’s nuclear ambition.

Racial disharmony and urban violence have exploded; tens of thousands of convicted felons, primarily illegal aliens, have been granted early release from federal prison; arsonists, and drug trafficking shooters are now comforted by neutered police ordered to stand down and conduct kinder and gentler neighborhood strolls.

Hillary’s criminal justice reform -- simply releasing thousands of convicted felons on to the streets -- is but a ditto to Obama’s prison release for terrorists and illegal aliens convicted of violent crimes. Her racial pandering cum contrition for her complicity in her Bill’s disastrous drug sentencing and incarceration legislation won’t change the desperation throughout Democratic hellholes in Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, and St. Louis.

Where the sentiment “all lives matter” apparently trivializes black people, who are assured that grievance mongering, permanent rage, and wealth redistribution blackmail are first-order modeled behaviors, while honest labor and work ethic are condemned as tools of bondage and oppression, imposed callously and indiscriminately by white-privilege overlords.

And commonplace discourse in former times is now labeled corrosive hate speech; where rights for some require rights confiscated from many; where guilt and reparations talk drowns out reconciliation and rejuvenation.

Labor force participation is at a forty-year low; a record 45 million people rely on food stamps, the Federal Reserve’s near zero interest rate policy to enable more government spending has destroyed seniors’ savings.

And so, amidst the carnage from Obama’s willful destruction of American exceptionalism, and even his utter incompetence at ushering in and running the first waves of a Marxist state, Hillary promises more of the same, foreclosing forever a return to those three erstwhile immutable American values of egalitarianism, liberty, and individualism.

What a joyless obsession is Hillary’s unfinished business. Well, let’s just say some business deserves to be unfinished.
