Hillary Clinton has a message for the world: It's not all about Bill.
The secretary of state bristled Monday when as she heard it a Congolese university student asked what her husband thought about an international financial matter.
She hadn't traveled to Africa to talk about her husband the ex-president. But even there, she couldn't escape his outsized shadow.
She abruptly reclaimed the stage for herself.
My husband is not secretary of state, I am, she snapped. I am not going to be channeling my husband.
Clinton's presence, so bold in her historic presidential candidacy against Barack Obama, has sometimes been hard to see in the months she's served as the supposed face and voice of U.S. foreign policy.
