Positive article about our girl.  Hillary finds women's issues to be a very important issue and has her entire life.

Secretary Clinton has chosen her close friend Melanne Verveer as the State Department's first Global Ambassador for Women's Affairs. Clinton has indicated that major decisions at the State Department will be viewed through the prism of how they might impact women. Jessica Grounds is president of the nonpartisan "Women under Forty" political action committee, based in Washington.

"Secretary Clinton has done something by bringing this global women's issue to a top priority, that every decision goes through that office, because often times women's issues tend to be an outlier piece, or maybe like a minority group," she explained.


As much as I didn't want Hillary to work for Obama as SOS, appointing her to this position is probably the most beneficial action Obama will take on behalf of this country during his failed administration.  Hillary is serious about this effort -  about women's rights and about helping women fulfill their potential, support and care for themselves and their families, and live quality lives.

This is an excellent article.  It's good to see someone recognizing and reporting on the accomplishments of this gifted stateswoman.
