Hillary does indeed have her very own identity and passion for politics.
She was born Hillary Diane Rodham on October 26, 1947 to her parents, Dorothy and Hugh Rodham.
Hillary’s brother, Tony, sadly passed away in 2019, as the politician confirmed onTwitter.
“When he walked into a room he’d light it up with laughter.”
She even scored an internship in Washington, D.C. in 1968, working for the House Republican Conference.
So what changed, politically, for the young Hillary?
By 1968, she officially changed her political affiliation.
Hillary graduated from Wellesley in 1969, obtaining her political science degree with high honors.
It was only uphill from there.
I had no idea what to expect," she said.
“When I came to Yale I was one of 27 women out of 235 law students.
I’m Hillary Rodham.
Who are you?'”
The two started dating, and have been together since.
So what does that have to do with Hillary Clinton (then Rodham)?
Oh, well, Watergate was one of her first cases out of Yale Law.
“The staff that was put together was so professional, experienced.
They were some of the greatest lawyers I’ve ever worked with,” Hillary recounted.
Per the Clinton House Museum website, Hillary subsequently went out of town, and Bill bought the house.
Dropping $17,200 for the house, he got all the details in order before his then-girlfriend came home.
When Hillary returned, Bill not only proposed but presented her with a house, too!
(Ladies, a friendly reminder to keep those standards high.)
“Remember that little house you liked so much?
I bought it,” Bill said, per the museum’s website.
“You have to marry me now because I can’t live there alone.”
They got married shortly thereafter in the home’s living room.

During the 1992 campaign, Hillary said that her dedication was the result of both professional and personal goals.
“For me, that balance is family, work, and service.”
However,Bill and Hillarydid remain together and the scandal has stayed with them ever since.
Although she had made it as a politician, Hillary’s time in Congress was not without controversy.
“I made it very clear that I made a mistake, plain and simple.
“What we now see is a very different and very dangerous situation.”
But don’t think Hillary’s transformation was complete after her upset not at all.
While Obama clinched the nomination and the presidency, he didn’t forget his former campaign opponent.
The young president nominated Hillary as his secretary of state.
“I’m so happy this day has come.
Happy for grandmothers and little girls and everyone in between.
