Hillary Clinton Clinton's resume includes roles as Secretary of State, two-term senator, 2008 presidential candidate -- and first lady. Clinton broke tradition as First Lady and set up shop in the West Wing, intent on reforming the nation’s healthcare system. Clinton was as headstrong as she was passionate. Republicans have attacked Clinton's handling of the attack on an American consulate in Benghazi, Libya that killed four Americans in 2012. Clinton's use of a private email server has also been met with widespread criticism. Since departing as Secretary of State, Clinton maintained her position on the board of the Clinton Foundation and gave notoriously lucrative speeches to the likes of Goldman Sachs.
