CAMBRIDGE, MA -- Just seven weeks into Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidency, historians are predicting it's already headed for the "all-time top five," according to Harvard University's Doris Kearns Goodwin.

"She is already firmly in the top ten, and flirting with taking Teddy Roosevelt's spot at number five," Kearns Goodwin told NPR's Terry Gross on "Fresh Air."

In barely two months, Clinton has made headlines and warmed liberal hearts by appointing the most diverse cabinet in history - including the highest-ranking Muslim in government, increasing the minimum wage to $12 an hour, raising taxes on the ultra wealthy, shutting down the Dakota Access Pipeline, mandating parental leave, and welcoming Syrian immigrants.

Of course the big fights are still ahead of her: heath care and Wall Street reform.

"No doubt, these are going to be politically difficult needles to thread," Goodwin said. "I think she'll impress us though. She's building on Obama's legacy, and in the end, I think she'll be competitive with FDR and Lincoln."

Well, if you listen to a few heavy posters here, this outcome would be far better than Trump winning.

Most elderly people who trip and fall do so striking their heads on tables then floors..    Hillary seems to be very good at it.

She has talent.

I wonder if Hillary will get the Nobel Peace Prize?

BTW, I am not joking. It would not surprise me at all. If Obama can get it in 15 days, then anybody can get it.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

I believe you.  That's one of the things I don't get.  When I gently admonish some people here for jumping on Trump over piddling things and mention how much worse Hillary would be, I've been told that is not applicable to the discussion.
Against stupidity, the Gods themselves contend in vain.

No, this is clearly a case of the camera angle hiding Huma on the floor. Hill was happy to see her is all.
