You don't have to know me very well to know that I have an infallible fondness, love, and respect for the Clintons. Both of them. I have Bill Clinton's autobiography on audio CD. There is nothing I would rather listen to.
But, Hillary is the news-maker these days. And this article is fascinating, and particularly in-depth and well-written for a mainstream news source.

I wonder how much insight her college thesis can really provide to indicate what sort of president she would be? I mean, this was 40 years ago. I wrote a senior thesis only four years ago and I can hardly remember what it was about. Since my thesis involved literature and critical gender studies, two things I have not studied since defending my thesis, I certainly could not still defend it or speak with authority on it. I cannot even imagine having people ask me to do so 36 years from now. But, as she always does, I'm sure Hillary will rise to the occasion.
On a related note, does anyone know what GWB wrote his senior thesis on? My guess is there was no senior thesis. And if he had to write one, I bet it was horribly written, barely defended, and on a stupid topic like how the mediocre rise to power.
