CV question: Why did Hillary Clinton resign as Secretary of State? ...

[k8conant]

What work has she been doing since then? (speaking only or what)?

[RobertEarl]

1. Didn't pay enough

And her server was so overloaded with secrets she needed a new one. That and she'd milked the job as much as she could and Obama decided she could not be trusted because the FBI was on her trail.

9. Do you ever write anything that is factual or even makes any sense?

Gee..........

[Logical]

11. Do you? Nt

2. Most do resign after a 4 year term. She has been a private citizen

She has also been busy with various charities including several AIDS groups.

5. Perhaps I'm missing something with this OP, which is easily answerable using Google.

Is there a subtext I'm not picking up on?

7. Who knows? I don't know why folks don't use The Google

3. Because leaving at the end of a president's first term has become the norm for Secy of State.

Christopher (Bill Clinton) and Rice (Bush) both left at the end of the first term of the president that appointed them. Going back further, there are only a handful of examples in the last half century of Secretaries of State serving more than four years.

4. She resigned to annoy those who wanted Elizabeth Warren to run for President.

When they settled for Bernie Sanders she shrugged and continued to annoy the same people.

6. LMAO

8. Rarely do SOS stay for a second term.

It's a physically brutal job. A SOS spends most of his/her time traveling and it takes its toll. George Shultz was the last SOS to stay in office more than 4 years. He was Reagan's SOS for 7 years.

10. She wanted to sleep in a bed.

Also, she wanted to go for three days without washing her hair.

12. I don't care, but I am exceedingly grateful

that a more rational Kerry took up the work.

[HooptieWagon]

13. Yep. Kerry has done yeomans work cleaning up the messes she left.

He deserves much more credit than he gets.
