An informative email has been sent to the organization. Human trafficking is one of the most horrific crimes in many parts of the world. With Hillary's ties to Ng Lap Seng, how can she be inducted?
Nominate
The Board of Directors of the National Women's Hall of Fame respectfully requests nominations of outstanding American women to be considered for induction into the National Women's Hall of Fame.
General Criteria
The mission of the National Women's Hall of Fame is: "To honor in perpetuity those women, citizens of the United States of America, whose contributions to the arts, athletics, business, education, government, the humanities, philanthropy and science, have been the greatest value
." Nominees may be living or deceased, but must be citizens of the United States. Their contribution(s) should be of national or global importance and of enduring value.
Instructions and Information
Completed Nomination Forms must be submitted directly to the Hall of Fame (see below). Only nominations submitted on this official Nomination Form will be accepted for review. Nominations will be reviewed for accuracy and compliance by the Hall's Research Committee. Nominations are judged by independent panels of judges, newly recruited every year. The judges panels are composed of distinguished citizens with expertise in one or more of the areas of achievement outlined in the Hall's mission and of representatives from respected, relevant national organizations.

However, only a completed Nomination Form will be sent on for judging and final selection. Please note that all materials sent with this Nomination Form become the property of the National Women's Hall of Fame and will not be returned.

She's the smartest woman in the world - no doubt about it!
She was also married to a rapist and that didn't seem to bother them either.
In 1969, a group of women and men of Seneca Falls created the National Women's Hall of Fame, believing that the contribution of American women deserved a permanent home in the small village where it all began. The Hall is home to exhibits, artifacts of historical interest, a research library and office. The National Women's Hall of Fame, a national membership organization, holds as its mission:
"To honor in perpetuity these women, citizens of the United States of America whose contributions to the arts, athletics, business, education, government, the humanities, philanthropy and science, have been the greatest value for the development of their country."©
The Hall is a shrine to some of the greatest women in the history of this country and a tribute that grows annually with each induction ceremony as we learn to appreciate more about the wonderful contributions that women make to our civilization.

This shocks them, but her ties to Larry Flint does not?
In addition to temperance and suffrage, under Willard's leadership the WCTU supported broad social reforms such as equal pay for equal work, the eight-hour work day, Armenian relief, world peace, the protection of women and children in the workplace, kindergartens, mothers' clubs (the forerunner of the PTA), dress reform, jail reform, uniform marriage and divorce laws, and physical education in grade schools. The WCTU established homes for working girls, shelters for abused women and children, and free kindergartens. In addition, Willard was a founding member of the Illinois Woman's Press Association, one of the first five women elected to the Methodist General Conference, and a founder and first president of the National Council of Women.
I'm still waiting for the executive director's call and explanation. If anyone would like to call and suggest to her that Heidi Fleiss be the next inductee, that would be fine.

Clinton Inducted Into Women's Hall of Fame By BEN DOBBIN, Associated Press Writer
Sun Oct 9, 8:34 AM ET
SENECA FALLS, N.Y. - Inspired by Alan Shepard, the first American to journey into space, a 14-year-old from suburban Chicago wrote a letter to NASA in 1961 asking what she needed to do to become an astronaut. She got a curt reply: Girls are not being recruited by the nation's space program.

"It had never crossed my mind up until that point that there might be doors closed to me simply because I was a girl," recalled the letter writer, better known today as Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, as she was enshrined Saturday in the National Women's Hall of Fame, along with nine other inductees.
Honored with her were Maya Lin, who designed the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C.; Dr. Rita Rossi Colwell, who became the first female director of the National Science Foundation in 1998; and Betty Bumpers, a crusader for childhood immunizations who was Clinton's predecessor as Arkansas' first lady.
"I don't think there has ever been a better time to be a woman than in the United States of America in the 21st century," Clinton said in an interview.
The first known women's rights convention was held in 1848 in this upstate New York village. The hall, which opened in 1969, acclaims women who have made valuable contributions to society and especially to the freedom of women. In all, 217 women have been chosen by a national committee of judges.
Six women honored posthumously this year included pilot Blanche Stuart Scott, a barnstormer in the early days of aviation; Ruth Fulton Benedict, an anthropologist whose 1934 book, "Patterns of Culture," became an American classic; and Florence Ellinwood Allen, who in 1934 became the first female judge appointed by a president to a U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
Every young female airhead thinking of voting for Hillary needs to know about this.
