Hillary Diplomatically Educates a Congolese Student

Maybe our country would be better off sending a diplomat on missions like these. Oh, wait...
I think we got a brief glimpse of how she must look when he confronts Bill when he messes up. Wow. That was like a second or two from a battle royale cage match fight. She looked like she wanted to jump into the audience and beat the poor woman.
That being said, I think her anger regarding the actual question was justifiable, given the nature of it -- or at least, the translation of it.

The question ACTUALLY asked by the student was entirely appropriate-it referred to Obama,her boss,not her husband.This woman doesn't have a boss at home,you can bet on that.
