The National Archives have released Sen. Clinton’s schedules from when she was First Lady. You can go to the National Archives and view them or you can view that at the Clinton Presidential Library’s website.
I’ve been scanning them and in haven’t looked at all the years. The one thing that stands out is how much information has been redacted because it has been deemed “too personal and and invasion of privacy”. The phone numbers, I understand. But names of who she met with have been blocked out, reasons for the meeting have been blocked out, places for the meetings have been blocked out…you get the drift. And most of the meetings were closed to the press anyway. So you’ll see a lot of:
Private Meeting Map Room CLOSED PRESS
A. Lot.
Another thing I noticed is that there’s a lot more redaction in their first term, than in the second term. The second term seemed like Clinton was just getting interviewed and being given gifts, whereas the first term there’s a lot of policy stuff going on. Clinton also did a grip of interviews, some of them even promoting her book. The one biggest surprise for me is seeing names I had forgotten, remembering old scandals and drama and getting that yuck-feeling of not again, if Clinton becomes president. On the upside, we eventually get the weather forecast for D.C.
So, that’s that for now.
