Hillary Clinton: A Boomer of Letters

A cover story in Sunday’s NY Times revealed the innermost thoughts of Hillary Clinton, then a college student, as she poured her heart out in letters to a Princeton pen pal. Excerpts reveal such youthful ruminations as: “Since Xmas vacation, I’ve gone through three and a half metamorphoses and am beginning to feel as though there is a smorgasbord of personalities spread before me.” A reminder to future presidential pen pals: Eat the document.
