So far she's my candidate of choice
When I am asked what is the most pressing issue facing us today, I always answer the environment, silly. So when I say that Hillary has what it takes, I'd like to think I have some facts to back that up as I've done copious research.
She seems to have an evenhanded view of what is politically possible without bowing to "special interests'" demands. One can tell she does actually care.
I don't know if saying that Al Gore is her environmental hero is just good PR or she actually believes it, but that alone says something positive about her views on the environment. I mean if we can't vote for him, she seems most likely to do the hard work and get things done for our planet.

Al Gore: My Hero
I was devastated when Gore lost the 2000 presidential election. Think how much better the USA would be if he had. After reading his book, "Earth in the Balance", I was made aware of so many bad things happening in the world, and ways we could change it. He has dedicated a huge portion of his life to the environmental cause. We need to support those leaders who can make a difference, any difference no matter how small. And anyone who says he did nothing in office for the environment is ignorant of the way of politics. The Clinton/Gore White House did not have the luxury of having a partisan base behind them every step of the way. That makes an enormous difference in what can actually be accomplished. I thank Mr. Gore for all his hard work and have every intention of seeing his documentary "An Incovenient Truth" when it comes to Baltimore.
