Honest question: what is Hillary's top priority as president?

[Fast Walker 52]

I know she has a lot of things she'd like to work on.
https://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/

I'm just wondering what is her biggest priority? Does anyone have a better idea of this than I do?

[lsewpershad]

1. AND

How will do it.

[Joob]

2. We'd need the transcripts for her speeches for that.

[bkkyosemite]

3. Yes! It's to keep her and the rest of the elites hands in the cookie jar and no sharing as usual.

[HughLefty1]

25. This in a nutshell...

If you are not in the 1% I don't understand how you can vote for HRC.

[Punkingal]

4. Protecting the 1%.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

5. Finding some place to stash Bill and keep him out of trouble?

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

6. I'd like to know what is her vision? She hasn't been very clear on that...

[Herman4747]

7. Re-election. n/t

[frylock]

37. Doubtful.

I don't even think she wants the job. I think she just wants to prove to Bill that she's just as good as him. It wouldn't surprise me in the least to see her pack it in after one term.

[Skwmom]

8. To deliver to the 1% on trade, etc. and tell the people the Republicans won't let her do anything

for the people. Same old same old.

[Awknid]

28. I agree with you, Skwmom

[haikugal]

30. In a nutshell.

[LonePirate]

9. In today's political climate, preventing Republican rollbacks of the last eight years is likely it.

[NCjack]

10. Begin delivering favors to banksters and CEOs who donated to her. /nt

[AgerolanAmerican]

11. Realistically? War

and massive corporate power grabs like TPP

over/under on number of countries she'd invade or overthrow governments in four years: 6

(she did four as SoS, so the assumption is she'd be more prolific at it with more power)

[NorthCarolina]

12. Growing the Clinton Foundation retirement fund. nt

[KMOD]

13. She has many,

but she has said often that Immigration reform is at the top of her list and something she will start working on in her first 100 days.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

14. is that how long her sentence will be?

After the federal charges are filed?

[KMOD]

15. ...

[dr60omg]

21. Clinton on Immigration: oh the rich metaphors

What happens when she spins on Honduras on what she said to children in cages who made it through an unbelievable trek to get to the US to avoid being butchered?
That sort of thing. Yes, Clinton loves refugees.

How did she flip on this in terms of undocumented workers about drivers licenses

I could go on and on ... she spins every way she thinks the wind blows

[KMOD]

24. ...

[leveymg]

16. War with Iran. nt

[geek tragedy]

17. it will have to be immigration reform.

Obama failed the Latino community by not pushing for it harder during his first 2 years. Congress certainly didn't help, but they were going to get hosed anyways in the midterm so might as well have gone for it.

[Fast Walker 52]

34. thanks-- that makes sense, since she has gotten a lot of support from them

[BernieforPres2016]

18. Maintaining the status quo

Like a third term of Obama. Which begs the question as to what Obama's agenda is

[Armstead]

19. Did you ever see The Candidate with Robert Redford?

The end. Redford has won the election and is about to make his acceptance speech...says it all

[ChairmanAgnostic]

20. Except he had charisma

unlike . . .

[KMOD]

23. you?

Yes. I agree.

[Ferd Berfel]

22. Protect Wall Street from the peon hordes

[beedle]

26. Sneaking into the White House

... of the Sanders presidency.

But assuming she somehow sneaks in, it will be enacting Republican policies.

[Politicalboi]

27. Not to get impeached on day one

But she will.

[Jackie Wilson Said]

29. I think she wants to poison all pet cats in the country, for starters.

and for the impaired

[SheilaT]

31. Since she's not yet President, and not even the nominee at this point,

you should be wording that question in a future conditional tense:

What would her top priority be if she were to become President?

In any case, my guess in the face of that dreadful scenario, is she'll seek "compromise" with Republicans on Social Security, minimum wage (probably a lot less for teen workers for starters), and a woman's right to control her own body.

Then she'll shore up all the big banks, shut down any effort to bring to justice the tax cheats we're beginning to learn about from the Panama Papers, and then figure out which country to next invade.

[Motown_Johnny]

32. $750.000 minimum speaking fees

[zipplewrath]

33. Re-election

Everything else will be secondary to this single goal.

[Red Oak]

35. Tough call. Satisfy Blankfein and Wall Street first or the war hawks and Netanyahu?

One of those will be her top priority.

[CharlotteVale]

36. Whatever Wall St. wants it to be.

[Vinca]

38. Her biggest priority is being president.

[grntuscarora]

39. Feathering her nest. And self-aggrandizement.

Or, more seriously, to push through TPP and
re-ignite Keystone XL.

She only distanced herself from those issues when it became politically necessary to do so. When she get what she wants she will revisit them, I fear.

[bigwillq]

40. (more) Power

Lust for power has fueled the Clintons for decades.

[winter is coming]

41. Re-election. n/t
