DOTHAN, Ala. — On a humid summer day in 1972, Hillary Rodham walked into this town’s new private academy, a couple of cinder-block classrooms erected hurriedly amid fields of farmland, and pretended to be someone else.
Playing down her flat Chicago accent, she told the school’s guidance counselor that her husband had just taken a job in Dothan, that they were a churchgoing family and that they were looking for a school for their son

Undercover Sister?
I am in all ways t’ard of this woman.
Hillary Clinton, Agent of A.L.I.N.S.K.Y
Not sure what this article is supposed to demonstrate exactly. That Hillary rented a car, drove 4 hours to a rural school, asked a few question, and left.
How courageous!! [/s]
So she was out to get Nixon before her patronage appointment to the Watergate committee.
number one...with a bullet
On Marcy Park Records, Tapes, CDs and digital downloads.
Dothan? The condom capital of the US? Why would Hillary have needed to go there? Lol
First of all the article treats people sending their kids to a non public school as a crime. Next, the issue in 1972 was not legitimate integration. It was forced busing of inner city kids to the suburbs.
And Hilary sure as hell didn’t send her own elitist kid to some cinder block school house.
Translation: The federal government and specifically the US Supreme Court royally shafted the public school system, forcing millions into private schools. Hillary’s solution was to blame the whites as always.
And as always her efforts accomplished zero.
Yes. I'll have to vote for her now. I mean, she checked out a SCHOOL. For the CHILDREN! My heart is bursting with admiration for this pioneer for equality.
So shes been a fraud and a liar for 40+ years
Excellent political video.
Brown v. Board of Education
While I agree with the Courts decision in Mr. Browns favor in principle, not only did the Court wrongly ignore that the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly give the feds the power to decide policy for intrastate schools, but the Court unsurprisingly attacked state sovereignty, imo, by wrongly amending the Constitution from the bench to establish forced segregation.
In other words, the federal proposers of the 14th Amendment arguably should have foreseen a problem with segregation and included a segregation provision in that amendment, or proposed an amendment along the lines of the 15th Amendment which addresses segregation issues but in broader terms.
But I will also point out that addressing segregation within the framework of the Constitution would probably have been difficult in those times. In fact, as evidenced by major concerns about the way that the post-Civil War 14th Amendment was ratified, I question if the Southern states would have likewise been unwilling to ratify any amendment that supported segregation.
Now that all of that has been said, it remains that the problem with Hillary Clinton trying to win votes by pushing race issues is this. The only race-based issue that the states have amended the Constitution to expressly protect is voting rights as evidenced by the previously mentioned 15th Amendment. So any race-related campaign promises that Clinton makes outside the context of voting rights to presumably try to win votes from low-information voters are based on constitutionally nonexistent federal government powers.
IOW, she’s always been a liar.
“Years later, Mrs. Clinton does not say she ever felt afraid, but a white woman traveling alone in the South would have been “looking over her shoulder,” said Marlene Provizer, who did similar research into segregation academies in Mississippi and Georgia in the same era.”
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was an out-of-state military brat in Selma Alabama in 1966. Want to know how scared I was? Well...sorry, I don’t remember ANY fear. Nor did my Mom ever seemed afraid the local whites were going to jump her and beat her up.
Wonder if Mrs. David Eisenhower will be backing Mrs. Bill. Wasn’t she an Obama acolyte?
A liar to us is a truth-teller to the American people.
Was she under sniper fire at the time?
