5’3.5 now - standing near to Jill Biden (5’6), she looks this sort of height.
Peak height: just a little under 5’5 - 164.5cm (5’4.5).

5'5" peak and 5'3.75 now. She isn't short now shes just shy of the average 5'4" height
Arch Stanton said on 27/Feb/21
I would have thought about 5 ft 5. I thought she was quite good looking in the 80s and 90s Click Here like there but urgh, scary woman, not somebody you'd want to get on the wrong side of (like Trump).
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 20/Feb/21
Canson, 6ft1½ would be the lowest I'd buy for Bill but more likely closer to 6ft2. I'm with Rob though, he probably wasn't a guy that held on to that mark in the evening. But I think he may be one of the very few that actually got 6ft2½ straight out. Bush senior on the other hand would have got 6ft3 first thing....now him you could make the case for 6ft2½...certainly a bit over 6ft2 anyway
Canson said on 19/Feb/21
@Editor Rob: perhaps 6’2.5 out of bed 6’1.75 afternoon height or maybe he was never 6’2.5 out of bed and only 6’2.25 dipping to 6’1.5”. There was a noticeable difference with HW Bush and him.

I bet now, in 2021, this infamous woman is well under 5ft 4. Probably 5ft 3½ or less.
Almost 180cm guy said on 9/Feb/21
Maybe somewhere around 166 cm was her peak height, surely 30 years ago she might have seemed taller than she is today. I found two photos of Hillary alongside Bill from 1992: Click Here Click Here
Hillary was 45 then and Bill 46 so they couldn't lose anything yet in 1992. Rob, would you say Bill looked like a real 6ft 2 guy next to Hillary or more like 187 cm?
Editor Rob
Bill at a weak 6ft 2 is arguable. I think maybe out of bed 6ft 2.5 was possible.
5'10 Dude said on 22/Jan/21
I'm thinking she's just a solid 5'4 now, but I could be wrong. I feel like her proportions make her look short, but I know she isn't. She looked kinda small at President Biden's inauguration. Bill Clinton still looked a solid 6'0 to me.
AnonymousContributor said on 21/Jan/21
Very stocky so looks even shorter than her 5ft2.
Vincent Caleb said on 20/Dec/20
Trump holds up very well with Shaq in those pictures that Sotiris Gravas posted. Clinton looks to be quite over listed. Even if Bill was the full 6’2”(which I doubt he was) the. Clinton still would be over listed by at least a quarter. At least Bill doesn’t inflate his height by 3 inches like big Don.

@Edwards: I agree. I wonder if she wasn’t really just 5’5 flat peak
Ree said on 25/Oct/19
HRC is already 71. Her oft-stated height was 5'6", but she never looked anywhere near that tall. I've even seen 5'7" somewhere! She's probably around 5'3" now, and no taller than 5'4". She's never been 5'6" in her life.

Peak height is 164 cm range like Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson.
Current height is 5ft 3 3/4 162 cm range as of 2019... of course she isnt even taller than US senator ELIZABETH WARREN with 5ft 6 half range...

If Hillary was 165 by 2009 how tall does that make Gaddafi's son Mutassim?Hillary doesn't seem to have footwear advantage
Seeing the reliable pics I would have thought 184-5 (6'0.5-1)seemed honest.He could look over and under the mark as he tilts his head both up and down in the pics.
Editor Rob
6ft 1 isn't impossible for him.

Also, I'm sick and tired of visitors attacking Rob for his "political biases". It's not a matter of Rob having 'biases', it's a matter of Rob not being an idiot. A certain side of the spectrum loves to label the other side(s) 'snowflakes', but if a site owner can't offer the lightest of commentary on a duck quacking like a duck ON HIS OWN SITE without been lambasted for "ignorance".....then who are the real snowflakes? :) And I can see Hillary being a flat 5'4" today. The common 5'7" and even 5'8"(iirc?) listings were hogwash at any point in her life.
Editor Rob
Hilary may well be 5ft 4 today.

People can certainly look for bias in any dataset or commentary and even interpret some humour as politically motivated 🤔 I'm quite apolitical though 😱

A lack of knowledge can also create perceived bias, especially when it comes to adding entries to this site.

Editor Rob: How do you account for Obama's 333 tours of golf courses in his eight years in office? Or is your memory just a matter of convenience??? Seems to me you should have taken note of his excessive vacations as well, while he was touring the world on the American taxpayers' dime. As I recall and I do very well, Barry and Michelle spent well over $100 million taxpayer dollars with their over 20 member entourage that included mostly family members. Complaining about Trump who, by the way is not accepting a salary from the American people and taxpayers, is something you don't seem to have taken into consideration. Remember there are a lot of people out here who may be able to remind you of events and situations you so conveniently forgotten.


I think Rob only allowed that comment because he hates me! ;)
KristenSuzanne: There are a lot of issues in which the more intellectually-inclined conservative pundits can spin their narratives in order to make it appear that #45 'trumps' his predecessor - by way of fraudulently appealing to the lesser-savvy undecided voting population.

This isn't one of them.

Do a simple google search for unbiased articles comparing Trump's vacation(or perhaps 'holiday' in Rob's vernacular) costs in ONE YEAR vs. Obama's expenditures over his ENTIRE two terms. Also bear in mind that Trump whined about this via twitter(where else?) while Barack was in office....OOPS! :(

If Obama had over 300 rounds, I hope his handicap improved too! 😯 It might have contributed to his magical middle-age half inch height increase.

She looks about 5'3.5 now . MJKoP , I voted for her too and it wasn't that she was my first choice or that I'm a fanboy , it's that she was the best choice out the clown show that we had and she had the most realistic views (though I disagreed with some) , Bernie would have been my second choice.

Btw this is only my opinion because I'm someone with center Left views.


I fully concur. There's a pretty long list of politicians and even quasi-celebrities who I believe would've made a better President than Hillary. But I'd vote for literally almost ANYONE if the alternative was Trump(which unfortunately it was), I honestly didn't need to delve too deep into Hillary's flaws and shortcomings to know that her biggest selling point was NOT being Trump.

And includes all of the other Republican candidates...I'd also take back W., despite having hated him at the time, and still harboring a strong disdain for him.

AND before I get myself started again, I'm just going to stop. :)

heelshealheight said on 12/Feb/17
Recent photos confirm that none of these politicians (left/right leaning) are honest about their heights. First and foremost, Trump is no way even close to 6ft3/6ft4; Obama has never been 6ft2; Bill Clinton was never taller than 6ft1; and Hilary Clinton is way below 5ft4. It appears that US politicians have got an issue (perhaps inferiority complex) about their height. EU/UK politicians, however, don't really seem to care..
John said on 4/Feb/17
5'7 is ridiculously idiotic. 5'5 at MOST.
TheManWithNoName said on 1/Feb/17
@Jane H

The United States is not a direct democracy, it is a representative democracy. The purpose of the electoral college is to prevent someone with mental issues, personal conflicts, or is the object of foreign influence from getting the Presidency. However, it has become more of rubber stamp within the past few decades for whoever gets the required 270 electoral votes. Trump got 306 to Clinton's 232. The electoral college had the opportunity to take the popular vote into consideration, but did not.
Editor Rob
and that's enough with the political explanations, which of course is accurate.

Hilary I do think looked taller in the 90's than in her campaign, but natural given her age and health.

Never got a near 5'6 impression from Hillary, but she was at least 5'5; and if Hillary is more frail than Trump (and adding that women apparently lose more height than men), then Hillary should've lost more than 1 inch and certainly more than Trump has lost. She also looks about 5.5 inches shorter, in a small heel, than 5'9.5ish Bernie Sanders.

5'5.25 peak
5'3.5 today

heelshealheight said on 2/Nov/16
Rather confused here as well (see comment regarding Trump).. Both candidates are very old and presumably their height has declined as well as everything else (brutal albeit true). Perhaps Clinton was circa 5ft5-5ft7 in her youth (as Trump may have been around 6ft1-6ft3). All human faculties decline with age; time is irreverently ruthless against us all without any exception.

Arch Stanton said on 15/Oct/16
@Rob, I was still thinking of her as 5'5.5. Last time I checked I looked at this I think she was on full peak listing. I saw upper 5 ft 3 vs 5'5.5, almost 2 inches. Obviously though it's 5'3.97, a fraction under 5 ft 4 and 5'4.5 current so not funny low as I'd initially thought.
Editor Rob
today I think she has shrunk a bit. Definitely interested in whoever wins, what will be the result of their first medical height measurement.
Arch Stanton said on 14/Oct/16
@Rob, these are funny low estimates!!
Editor Rob
13 guesses isn't that much a sample. It's only a half inch lower than my estimate, so not hugely different. When something gets to 1-1.5 inch different then that is for this site I think a big difference.
Anna said on 9/Oct/16
I highly doubt she is 5'7". She looks short on TV right now.

Pretty ridiculous that a quick google search lists her as 5'7". Definitely significantly shorter than that. 5'4.5" right now seems accurate.
Layla said on 30/Sep/16
A friend of mine met her years ago. Even has a picture. My friend is 5'5", and Hillary was slightly maybe 2 inches taller than her, can't see shoes, but I'm assuming Hillary was wearing a low heal like she usually does. So 5'5" and change seems right as peak height.

5'0" is absolutely ridiculous. Like, it's not even up for debate.
TMZ said on 20/Sep/16
The 5' 4.5" height might be based on when she was in her prime.

But seeing some recent videos of her ambushed at the airport walking by TMZ. You could tell viewing her full body from a distance and walking by and not some floor angle shooting up to make her look taller she looks around 5 feet 0" now with a max of 5'2". Women tend to lose more height as they age due to osteoporosis and figuring she's a work horse she must have consumed lots of coffee which strips calcium from her body on a daily basis over her 30+ years.

5'0" would be the best guess and 5'1" maybe when she woke up first thing and if you look at McCain he's probably around 5'5.5" to 5'6.5 tops now.

Examining that one photo with McCain and Clinton together you can see his eye level is above the top of her head. This would be around 5.5 to 6.0 inches difference. So 5'0 to 5'2" would be the approximate range of HRC today.

If she were to become elected as President she would become the first female President and also the shortest in history.
Ian C. said on 14/Sep/16
There isn't a page here for HIllary's running mate, Tim Kaine, so I'm stretching the protocols a little by discussing him on this page. Kaine has just released his medical records and he is five foot nine and 208 pounds, which makes him, according to the body mass index scale, obese. But he doesn't look like a fat man in any of his pictures. So what's up with that?

Bernie Sanders does seem to be at least 5ft10 today, near or at 5ft11 in his youth.
Ginny said on 28/Apr/16
Physical height is of no importance. Hillary Clinton has proved her inner stature when she stayed with Bill Clinton. She honored her vows before God and remained in her marriage. She showed definitive grace under pressure. Many Americans would say she should have divorced him but she learned at an early age that a vow before God should be treasured and kept. Holding her more accountable for her husbands infidelities than holding Donald Trump accountable for his own infidelities is wrong. God holds each person accountable for their own individual sins. Donald Trump tried to woo Meghan Kelly with phone calls and who knows what else before the American public. Meghan Kelly would not be flattered and would not succumb. So he tried to get Fox News to fire. This is the ultimate sexual harassment. He is a married man. This is not the first emotional infidelity. Donald Trump has proven himself in this area. His past and present actions speak loud and well for him in this area. A vote for Donald Trump says the person voting respects and loves only those with money.
Editor Rob
since it's a site about height, I think it's best to stick with the topic.
It will be interesting if she wins and what her first medical gives her...similarly for Trump.

Her aide Huma Abedin is quoted in a 4/4/2016 article: 'And it just inspired me. You know, I still remember the look on her face. And it’s funny, and she would probably be so annoyed that I say this, but I remember thinking; "Oh my God, she’s so beautiful and she’s so little!"'

Abedin began working as a White House intern for Clinton in 1996 when Clinton was 49.

@Mathew Robinson,

Even with a slight hump in his back, he was has consistently looked at least as tall as 5'10" Stephen Colbert. And, again, that's with a stoop.

He does look roughly Colbert's height. The tricky thing with older people is sometimes they stoop and can straighten up. But a lot of the time, they really can't straighten up. That's just the shape of their skeleton now. An example would be someone like Clint Eastwood. I'd give Bernie about 5'10" today, maybe he was 5'11", hell maybe even 6'0" years ago!

I always find it baffling Hilary's height seems to be all over the place with no conclusive agreement after however many decades of prominence. I remember I used to see the ridiculous 5'8-9 estimates, and then some people claim at the low end she's really 5'2-5'3 in person. I'm not sure how tall Bernie is exactly- it says 5'8 on some internet sources but other people have said he's close to 6' so maybe the 5'8 is underestimating him (how ironic, ha) a bit, but in any case he towers over Hilary, there is no way there's just an inch difference if you're going by what google says they are. My honest opinion is the listing here is probably pretty accurate, Hilary is probably in the average height 5'4-5'5 range.

MD said on 18/Feb/16
lol. Martin O'Malley is very clearly a strong 5'11" at the very least. Your perception of height is junk, quite frankly.
Anthony said on 16/Feb/16
There is absolutely no way Hillary Clinton is as tall as she claims to be. I saw her on the stage standing next to Martin O'Malley and he looked like a giant next to her. I have met Martin O'Malley when he was governor of Maryland on multiple occasions and he is a very short thin man. I towered over him and I am 6'1". I believe Hillary Clinton is 5 feet tall, maybe 5' 2" at most.
PetePro said on 13/Feb/16
Re. Hillary Clinton: Anyone stating over 5'6" has no idea about height. Taking into account her seemingly having a large head (she is very brainy), I'd say between 5'4-5".
MD said on 8/Feb/16
Saw her in townhall with 5'10"(ish) Anderson Cooper a week or two ago, and she honestly didn't look that short up against him in some sensible heels. Maybe not as tall as she sometimes get mention, but she's definitely not a short woman, high end of average at least.
N Cannon said on 5/Feb/16
The only thing this issue proves is that when it comes to Hillary Clinton, lies just swarm the area. Yes, she's on the shorter side but not for her age group. She's also my age and face it we're shrinking. Her credibility, or lack of it, had nothing to do with her heighth.
DR said on 23/Jan/16
Hillary claiming to be 5'7" is hilarious. 5'7" Amy Schumer DWARFS her. And even at that, Hillary has on kitten heels and Schumer is in what looks like flat lace up boots (although you can't see them in this pic). Looks a weak 5'4".

She was 5'4 in 2007, 5'5 in 2008, and now 5'7 in 2015-16.
Bill Clinton is 6'2, and she Just reaches his chin.
I believe she's 5'4 and a half.
Susan said on 11/Nov/15
If you look at the numerous photos of Bill and Hillary online, from when they were young to the present, she is substantially shorter than he is (when she is wearing heels). If Bill is 6'2," which seems about right, there is no way she is any taller than 5'4" -- and that's pushing it.
John said on 1/Oct/15
You can't do much about height, but you can at least get into reasonably decent shape. When Hillary herself is pear-shaped, what shape will the USA be in after she's screwed it up for four or eight years?

Was 5-5 in 2008 per her campaign.
betty said on 22/Sep/15
If you look at photos of MCCAIN and Hillary she is shorter then him and it says he is 5'7" so she lies about his height too!
aud said on 23/Aug/14
y'all are crazy. I've stood next to McCain and Hillary and at 5'7 I am taller than both of them. I remember immediately phoning my mom after meeting Hillary and remarking how short she was. She couldn't be more than 5'4, tops.
richinkle said on 13/Jul/14
I can't imagine Hillary Clinton is any taller than 5'-5" today. Perhaps as tall as 5'-6" at her peak, but probably shy of that.
Brad said on 19/Jun/14
I should ask her monday, but what a dumb question.
Brad A. said on 11/May/14
Hey Rob, check out these pictures of Hillary with John McCain. I wonder if she might actually be closer to 5'5" if John is thought to be around 5'8" now. In the first picture, Hillary is in low heels and McCain is in dress shoes, both of which may be similar in terms of height added to the wearer.

she could have lost height by this age
dstok said on 18/Jul/13
My guess is 5'7 or 8. Saw her at NYS Fair and she was at least my height in very low heel shoes and I am 5'8"
ChUcKLeS said on 23/Apr/13
I met her, when I was only 16 years old, I thought that she was short, I was just shy of 6' then. Maybe, with all the plastic surgery they were able to add a few inches to her legs.
Mike S. said on 24/Feb/13
I've stood near the bill clinton hangers on hc and she's quite short, admittedly I'm 6'2" but she was much shorter, rather 5'3ish, maybe 5'4.
ChopShopOwner said on 18/Feb/13
I have stood next to Hillary and say 5'6 is accurate. She is definitely NOT 5'9. Even if not in visible heels she may wear lifts to appear taller at political functions.
manilo said on 6/Jan/13
Hillary clinton is 5'9'' barefoot and 5'11'' in normal woman heels. she looks shorter than this because miss clinton is not thin. but she is a really tall lady. i am 5'10 in shoes and Hillary was clearly taller than me when i met her next to me.
NANCY said on 6/Aug/12
I am 5'7 and when I met Hilary she was MUCH taller than me! AND I was wearing 3 inch heals and she was in flats. My photos confirm it was not my imagination either. I'd guestimate Hillary is between 5'9 - 5'11. Really!
Ras said on 17/Nov/11
Jeremy, yes, he seems to have quite a footwear advantage there, perhaps that picture they posted back then was totally deceiving, I'll go with 6'2" too.
jeremy said on 1/Nov/11

looks more like 6ft2
Ras said on 13/Apr/11
Shaun you're right. That Gaddafi's son dude is easily 6 ft 5 if Hilary is 5ft6. But if she is 5ft8.5 as she says she is then that guy must be 6ft7.
Demiere said on 8/Mar/11
Her actual height is 5'8.5 Hillary is a little taller than what you think because Chelsea is 5'11.
manilo said on 16/Jan/11
hillary clinton is 5'11'' tall in heels.i met her and i'm 5'9''.she was in not habitually 6 inch heels,she was awesome taller than me.
Sam said on 21/Apr/09
She is taller than 5 ft.6. She said once in public she was 5 ft.8, cos she always reads the news and information about her in the magazin sections of the news, internet and forums. I don't know really how tall she is...But I can only say taller than 170 cm. The pictures with Sarkozy and French Tv channels, she looks clearly 3 inches taller with her only 1,5 inch heels.
Bill said on 3/Apr/09
Here's Clinton and Sarkozy, April 2009. She's about 3cm taller.

Patrick said on 14/Oct/08
Re: Bill Clinton's height.....6'2" is way off. I met him in 1994 - we looked eyeball to eyeball, and I'm 6'0". And I have a picture that shows us that we're the same height.
sam said on 14/Aug/08
I'm laughing at some discussions, which you will find Hillary 5'4 or Under. You can also look at the all pictures in Search engines and you can clearly, definitely see, that she is mostly taller than the other women in them. It is very easy to search and finding those pictures.
Hillary is at least 5'6, yes here we can go...
lalex said on 3/Aug/08
I was at a convention at a hotel in NYC in the late 90's. An unrelated conference for lawyers was being held in the same hotel. I was in on the pay phone talking to my business partner, when who should walk by within 2 feet of me is Hillary Clinton, who was closest to me with a Secret Service agent further from me.

I am 5'10" and I TOWERED over her. I remarked to my partner on the phone how short she was. I was at least 4-6 inches taller than her. She was not wearing very high shoes, probably for comfort at a long conference. So I place her height at a maximum of 5'6, but probably closer to 5'4". The 5'7" advertised everywhere is certainly an exaggeration. I know first-hand.
Gyrl said on 9/Jun/08
Well, I met Hillary a few months ago and I was taller than her. I am 5'4. She is very short. I would say 5'2. I remember being shocked the time at how little she is. It definately doesn't show when she is on t.v. Been trying to figure that out ever since I met her. Another thing that stood out to me was her hair. She has the prettiest hair. The color is just gorgeous. That also doesn't show on t.v. She must being paying a fortune to get it done and I would say it's well worth it. Very pretty.
diana said on 6/Jun/08
everyone acts like hillary wears 3 + inch heels
ive never seen her wear more than one inch
i think this is her height if not this than 5'5.5
but i think her daughter is only 5'7 def. not 5'9 thats a joke
RJ said on 4/Jun/08
Sarah Jessica Parker is said to be under 5'3" and Matthew Broderick 5'7"+:

Tony Blair is 6':

I'm not convinced Bill Clinton is 6'2".

I reckon Hillary is comfortably under 5'4". She's about up to Bill's chin; take 9"+ off Bill's height, and she's under 5'4"
MD said on 15/May/08
She's very obviously in heels, but knowing Dean he's almost certainly in lifts. Dean is not the height he claims, BTW.
Kal said on 14/May/08

with 5'8.75 Howard Dean and Barack Obama
at least 5'7
Vindaloo said on 14/May/08
Hell no, she's like 5'5 tops! She's always wearing heels. That's why Bill slept with Monica.
OutBenchThis said on 10/May/08
She looks nothing bigger than 5'4"-5'5". I don't believe 5'6" for a second. Have a look at her walking side by side (front on) with (British) PM Brown.
Chris said on 6/Apr/08
Waterfield, I think you're right. I've seen Chelsea listed at 5'9" or 5'10", but she doesn't look this tall next to Hillary, or random people in their campaign. I'd say 5'7" is right.
clooby said on 2/Apr/08
I saw Hillary in Boston a couple years ago and she looked about 5'8" or 5'9" with heels. So she should be at least 5'6" in her bare feet. She didn't look as pretty in person either, but still looked nice.
waterfield88 said on 28/Mar/08
I got to see Chelsea in person today, and I even got to ask her about her mother's universal health care plan, lol.

Anyway, Chelsea did come off as a polite person in general, and confident, but not overly so. I don't think she's the type to want all the camera's on her to be honest.

I didn't get close enough to Chelsea to judge her height exactly, but she looked 5' 6" to 5' 7" based on her body proportions. She's also slender in person; she appears slightly bigger on camera.
waterfield88 said on 26/Mar/08
Okay, so I haven't posted here in months, but Chelsea Clinton, Hillary's daughter, is coming to my college to speak tomorrow. She looks one or two inches taller than her mother in general.

In this picture with Kimora Lee Simmons (6' 0"), Chelsea looks about 5' 7" to me.
Click Here


Anyway, I'll keep you posted if I get to meet her, about her height and personality. I'm a weak 5' 11" (2 hours after waking, with eye level at 5' 6.5").
Sam said on 17/Mar/08
Hillary was certainly 5" 8 before 10 years, and I think she lost solid 2 inch in years. If you do not belive in, look up the pictures Hillary with 5" 9 Queen Sofia of Spain, with 5" 10 Gwyneth Palthrow,...
Anonymous said on 4/Mar/08
i just saw hillary and eva longoria on tv. hill only had an inch on eva. i think she is 5-4. i've also seen her at a rally. she is nowhere near 5-8.
Andre said on 24/Feb/08
I wouls say Hillary is no where near 5 ft 6 more like 5 ft 4. It certainly looks like it everytime I see her, even in heels she never manages to look near 5 ft 8 let alone 5 ft 9.
me said on 23/Feb/08
I just met hillary clinton last 2 nights ago at the democratic convention in austin texas. I am 5'10, i had at 2-3 inches on her. She was half a foot infront of me wearing heels. She is 5'5 to 5'6.
C said on 16/Feb/08
I've seen Chelsea in person and she's only about 5'4''. I don't know where people get 5'9'' or 5'10'' from. She must wear some serious high heels.
Therese said on 10/Feb/08
Think how the studies have shown that it's almost always the taller candidate for US President that wins (GW Bush aside), so I can see how Hillary would suddenly want to appear more 5'8 or 5'9 than 5'6. Taller women look more elegant and give off an air of being in charge, so no wonder her promoters might be fibbing a bit on her stature. I'd give her about 5'7 barefoot!
Sam said on 25/Jan/08
I saw a photo, in that, Hillary was standing next to Queen Sofia of Spain ( 5"9 official), and they were in similar heights in this picture. They wore 2 inch heels, may be Queen had 3 inch.
Matt said on 19/Jan/08
I met her 2 or 3 years ago and I remeber her as being maybe 5'4 or so. She was definitely shorter than me, and I'm about 5'7.
Chris said on 19/Jan/08
Chelsea look 5'8" to 5'9" to me. That would make Hillary about 5'6".
Andy said on 17/Jan/08
I met Hillary and she is shorter than me by about three inches and I am 5'7"
Sam said on 17/Jan/08
I mean, Hillary Clinton has the same illusion like Angelina Jolie. They always look taller. I think, Hillary's height must be answered by her.
Sam said on 16/Jan/08
But you know, Chelsea often wears 2 or 3 " heels. Hillary is the flattest Lady ever, so far I have seen
El said on 15/Jan/08
Chelsea Clinton is reportedly 5'10". Hillary Clinton looks 2" shorter than 5'10" and 2" taller than 5'6" because she often wears 2" heels.
D. Ray Morton said on 13/Jan/08
She routinely looks 2" shorter than her daughter - however tall she is.
Sam said on 11/Jan/08
If Chelsea Clinton was 5" 9, Hillary would be 5"8. Hillary looks only 1 inch shorter than Chelsea, when she next to stand to Chelsea. Look the pictures, where they stand together anywhere.
I think Hillary is 5" 6, yes it is about to right her.
Antron said on 11/Jan/08
Vegas you have to compare her to people closer to her height to judge, not against a bunch of 6 foot and taller men.
Vegas said on 10/Jan/08
hillary looks to be struggling big time with anything near 5'6 next to 6'7 Dennis Rodman and she is in heels there, rodman in converse though he is a little closer to the camera Click Here
RG said on 10/Jan/08
i think it would be funny if somewhere drove through alabama, with hillary 4 president written on the side, anyway i agree Hillary is around 5ft 6in
