Hillary Rodham Gore

Submitted by Rekha Varma, Jan 10, 2008 01:13

Please can the someone from the US Press share this information with Americans, because they are completly unaware of the international role that Hillary played as 1 st lady, and the US Press is making no scincere effort to do any research, ridiculing her role in N.Ireland as just sipping tea with women & watching her husband negotiate with leaders. Hillary played an overlooked independent role in working with the community to achieve de facto peace, via creating opportunities for and encouraging Catholic & Protestant women & the young to unite over universal social issues that concerned them such as the safety of their families, the role of women in politics (causes that Hillary herself was passionate about) etc, Many feel that Hillary's experience in N.Ireland would be useful in suggesting how the Iraqi government can work with the various divisions within the community to unite over shared concerns of their childrens future after the war ends. I've provided a list of primary sources below as evidence of her contribution to the N.Ireland peace process found via a simple google search:
