Or if a woman makes a political statement with names, that’s ok, at least if she’s a liberal woman such as Hillary.

In the early days in Arkansas, she insisted on making a political statement by keeping her maiden name. Only after Bill lost his re-election as governor of Arkansas did she then become Hillary Clinton.

Then, shortly after Bill became president, she was referred to in the news as Hillary Rodham Clinton, with no explanation as to why she wanted both her maiden and married names used.

Sometimes now, she’s just called “Hillary”. She’s now in that status of people who can go by one name, such as Elvis or Madonna.

Good point, most people are not aware of that.

She also wanted to be referred to as "Hillary Rodham Clinton" immediately after Slick was elected in '92--until the time came for Slick's reelection in '96--at which time she asked to be called just "Hillary Clinton" again.

Of course she could NEVER be Hillary Rodham Clinton while running for President,,,so the "PC" name for her is just "Hillary" (just an average, next-door neighbor, down-to-earth, typical housewife).

But if she was elected, I would bet her preference would be President Hillary Rodham Clinton.

THOSE ARE THE RULES,,,and the sooner we accept them, the better./s

She’ll probably end up in old age as The Empress Formerly Known as Clinton.
