Many thanks to HarmlessRabbit for doing more research than I.
It is fairly simple to see that while Hilary's life and career are vastly effected by her marriage to Bill Clinton, she is, in her own right, a very intelligent, capable person. She was already on a path of "greatness", for the lack of a better word, prior to her marriage.
My father is an attorney and worked on several Bar Association committees with her in the 70's. He says that even then, she was the most intelligent and quick-thinking person in the room and that even when she was not chairing the committee, she was always one of the most influential members. Whether or not she would be a good president is a completely different story.
