NEW YORK, NY -- Tomorrow are the crucial Indiana and North Carolina primaries that could make or break Hillary Clinton's campaign. But today, in an Access Exclusive, she tackles the tough ones, like the Miley Cyrus photo controversy.
"From everything I've heard she's a great kid and obviously very talented, but I think we need to do more to preserve our kids' childhood," Clinton said.

The presidential hopeful said she feels it is the parents' responsibility to protect a child.
"They grow up so fast and [there are] so many influences coming from all directions these days," Clinton said. "I think it's important that all of us as parents draw some lines here."

For the mother of a young woman, Clinton can relate to dealing with the tough topics. She sees the Miley mess as an opportunity to teach.
"As they're teens you have to be ready to talk to them. Be ready for those teachable moments - [they] don't always come when you want them to," she said.

In related news, with the primaries just hours away, Clinton will attempt to appeal to young fans before tomorrow's big vote, via an appearance on "The Late Show with David Letterman," presenting a special top ten.
"It's about 10 things I love about about America," she said. "It's always funny. It's always a lot of fun. I really enjoy being on Dave's show."

But while Clinton appreciates the importance of pop culture in this election, she does have a confession about her recent movie-going.
"I love to go to movies with my husband," she said. "[I] did see a movie about a month, month and a half ago and I'm trying to remember what it was because I fell asleep. Isn't that terrible?"

rubberduckie8795i think that they need to leave miley alone with this whole picture scandal thing.some people wear less than that at the beach. shes just a kid and has probably learned her lesson. You need to get off of her back b/c nothing any of you say is giong to erase this from happening, it just makes the situation go on even longer. all of you saying this isn't going to stop it from ever happeninreport abuseposted May 25, 2008 6:32 PM PDT

cbaltimoreit really does beg the question, how can ALL the rest be sooo right, and that tiny part be wrong? just this, if it is right, theres no stopping it anyways, right? BUT also if right, WE determine where we stand in the end by the choices we make now, even if we believe it, did we throw up our hands & go w/flow, or at least try to share y we have to look beyond the cool thing to do &report abuseposted May 25, 2008 4:33 PM PDT

cbaltimoreone more thing, ever wonder y the end days prophecy in the ENTIRE bible NEVER mentions what happens to the USA, other than NEW YORK being GONE?think maybe cause USA simply gone long b4 and play no role at ultimate end. Its easy to say oh but maybe its wrong, I admit, I often think that too... but one question just keeps nagging inside... what if its NOT? The rest of it is DEAD ON & liningreport abuseposted May 25, 2008 4:21 PM PDT

cbaltimoresaexrome, how much plainer can i be, this blog is about hillarys comments, she sees that dad & childs behavior excused in the name of hip, cool & money is exactly why USA is on verge of NOT being the SUPERPOWER anymore. Ever heard of a BROKE superpower? yep, Obama is all that, but REALity of current situation DEMANDS wisdom, MORALS, and things WAY more serious than lets all go withreport abuseposted May 25, 2008 4:08 PM PDT
