Three years later, Hillary would emerge on her husband's second gubernatorial campaign as Mrs. Bill Clinton (she'd use his name for the rest of her career) and mother of Chelsea. It's hard to imagine that anyone then ever imagined she'd be the frontrunner for President of the United States a few decades later.

"Do you feel comfortable with this new position, if you can call it a position?" the interviewer asks the first lady. "If you just wouldn't be a practicing attorney, then that would eliminate some of the problems of not being together," he suggests as balm to her husband's busy schedule.

He neglects to mention that Hillary both graduated ahead of Bill and was earning more than him at the time, and insofar, had both her own position in the world and her own responsibilities in their marriage.

Other issues take precedence: "You're not at all interested in state dinners and teas and garden parties, the kinds of things we tend to associate with governor's wives," the interviewer tells Hillary, who proceeds to defend her social life impressively. She's balanced, not reclusive, she says. Unfortunately, there's more in the arsenal.
