It's not all bad in Politics

You've probably heard many times that Politics are all about lying, self-interest and beating your adversary with any weapons you have; and that politicians are bad people who are only after power and money. I guess this is true, sometimes. But not always. Politics are also a noble activity and politicians, even when disputing an election, can have ideals and fair play. Here's an example: Barak Obama and Hillary Clinton are disputing the Democratic Nomination to run for the Presidency of the United States. They were together in this show, and this is how Hillary answered the question: "Describe the moment in your life when you were tested the most" (maybe you still remember the Clinton / Monica Lewinsky affair?).

You're right...
Today I saw on CNN or SkyNews a report about her and she said that in her office there is a photo with her, Obama and Michelle Obama!
They can't ruin each other image, because next year we will probably see one of them beeing the vice-president candidate of the other!!
