Clinton Travels to India, Meets with Leaders, Speaks Out on Climate Change and Terrorism

Hillary Clinton made her first trip since she broke her elbow in June. The Media kept insisting that Hillary was being marginalized by the Obama administration. First of all regardless of rather or not he hates her and she hates him. It is not in Obama's best interest to get rid of Hillary. Its bad enough he overshadowed Hillary during her press confrence This hurts him in the long run. He needs to heal that rift caused by the Primary if he wants to continue to be supported by the women who decided to vote for him after Hillary. This may not happen again if he doesn't stop doing stuff like this.

Hillary spoke out strongly against terriorism actually calling it terriorism unlike other members of the Obama administration. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090718/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/as_clinton_india I have no idea why Obama is so afraid to call a spade a spade. We can not coddle the people who want to destroy us. We must remain tough.

Today Hillary met with the leaders of India to discuss several important issues such as emmissions and other issues. She wants the US and India to build a closer relationship.

The campus of St. Xavier's College in Mumbai (formerly Bombay) was buzzing in anticipation of Secretary Clinton's town hall style meeting. The historic Gothic heritage building was filled with the beaming faces of young volunteer teachers from NGOs Teach for India as well as Teach India.As the Secretary entered the room, television cameramen and print media photographers jostled for position while the audience members craned their necks for a better view. After all, it's not every day that the U.S. Secretary of State joins in conversation with Bollywood. But today, Secretary Clinton was joined by Aamir Khan, one of India's most famous, critically acclaimed, and socially conscious actors and directors. The conversation was steered by Arnab Goswami, Editor-in-Chief of Times Now, a top Indian news channel. Mr. Khan and Mr. Goswami warmly greeted the Secretary, and she reciprocated. She then turned to the gathering of approximately 75 young educators, who were clearly bristling with excitement at the chance to interact directly with public figures they hold in such high esteem. Secretary Clinton connected with them, underlining the importance of education in the world's largest, and the world's oldest, democracies. She and Mr. Khan agreed that classroom education is less effective when focused merely on rote memorization or tests.

Secretary Clinton inspires people all over the world. She is a wonderful Secretary of State and she will be a wonderful President.
