I agree if she is arguing that such experiences give her an enhanced ability to formulate foreign policy. However, if she is also interacting with world leaders even in this scheduled manner, it is somewhat useful as experience... dealing with leaders.

The only main thing they do in addition to photo-ops and such is periodically negotiate the 2 or 3 main issues at hand (and then leave details to people further down the chain). If Clinton can provide evidence that she's done some of the latter, that's better.<br><br>I'm just trying to draw the distinction between experience drawing up policy and experience working with foreign leaders.
