Hillary Clinton's Family Values

As we begin to consider who might run for president in 2016, I have to say that I have a lot of respect for Hillary Clinton. She was an excellent Secretary of State. She also exemplifies important values. I don't think that there is a politician alive who values the family as much as Secretary Clinton. Her husband cheated on her many times, but she forgave him. Why did she forgive him? Because she loves him and because she values her family. She was humiliated by her husband's behavior, but her love for him was deeper than her wound. Love, forgiveness, understanding, and commitment to one's spouse--those are real family values.
