I'd say bedstuy gave the 30-second pitch, but there's also a world of difference between weathering the Arab Spring and sitting around wearing sunglasses. Day to day things, such as her getting Chen Guangchen out of China without a diplomatic incident, initiating the Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review, raising the profile of the doctrine of "smart power", vamping up the State Department's social media strategy, and her environmental cookstove initiative represent more of the bread and butter of a Secretary of State's work that don't get the headlines. The last one I expect will end up saving thousands of lives.
