Hillary Clinton Has a Power That No Man Can Take Away
Katherine Bell, Slate
Bell writes: "Here is what I've learned from watching Hillary since 1992: She refuses to be defined by what has happened to her or by what other people have done.

Liptak writes: "In June of 2010, four boys were playing in the dry bed of the Rio Grande that separates El Paso from Juárez, Mexico.
