Clinton's Experience Is Debated

While Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign advertisements "have boasted that she is best prepared for a 3 a.m. crisis phone call, her recently released first lady schedules contain no evidence that Clinton was at the table during major national security decisions," the Washington Post reports.

"They do not list her as attending National Security Council meetings or joining briefings in the Situation Room. She did not have a national security clearance. And the documents make clear that at moments of major crisis, Clinton was often busy with her own agenda."
