Letters from a young Hillary
[asset|aid=461|format=image|formatter=asset|width=256|height=171|align=right|resizable=true]
In the Times today, there is an article about a high school friend with whom Hillary Clinton kept up a correspondence while in college. The friend seems to have no intention of publishing the letters he received from Clinton, but allowed the Times reporter and a Clinton biographer to read them.
The reporter quotes from them a bit in the article. Hillary Rodham, as she was then know, sounds a lot like me when I was in my first few years of college. She sounds like anyone. Durning her years at Wellsley, she went from being a Young Republican to considering herself a liberal. At one point during her junior year she calls herself an "agnostic intellectual liberal, emotional conservative." I always find it interesting to read what powerful, influential people wrote back when they were just young people.
