Really, Hillary? Name one.

Wow, so during world crises, when America was expecting President Bill Clinton to make the tough decisions, we're to believe that the First Lady was really calling the shots. Okay, I'm game. Name one world crisis, Hillary, where you were the one really in charge, and not your husband, the president. And spare us the "it was confidential" crap. You can't claim experience and then not back up your claims because it's super duper double secret. Just one example will do. What world crisis did you solve when we all thought Bill was the one in charge?
During the brief Q&A at her meeting, Clinton was asked about her role when her husband answered phone calls during crises in the middle of the night.

"I don't talk about the conversations that I had with my husband in the White House, but obviously I was there for a lot of phone calls at different times of the day and night, and I have a very clear idea of what it takes to be prepared and ready to not only to answer the phone but then to make the decisions that are required depending on what the crisis is."
