Hillary's contribution to Human Rights and her understanding that women's rights ARE human rights is phenomenal!

No other living politician has endorsed the principles of equality and attempted so consistently to improve girls' and women's lives in countries where they are considered chattels, including the U.S.!

Let's look at this gem of wisdom from the mouth of bible's god. Notice how the woman does NOT belong to her hubby (she is slave): If you buy a Hebrew servant, he is to serve you for 6 years. But in the 7th year, he shall go free,paying nothing. If he comes alone, he is to go free alone; but if he has a wife when he comes, she is to go with him. If his master gives him a wife and she bears him kids, the woman and her kids shall belong to her master, and only the man shall go free. [Ex. 21:2-6]
