I beg to differ. It was during ww II that record keeping of birth data, particularly the time, increased greatly. Prior to WW II most birth times are suspect, far more so than not, and I'm presently speaking from experience of casting and analyzing charts for over 32 years.
Concerning post WW II recorded birth times I have found when the individual in question is from any of the English speaking countries, or one of a majority of the European nations, the recorded birth data to be far more accurate than not.
But pre WW II, I couldn't agree more. No one in my fathers family had a clue as to what time of day He was born and in fact no two could agree to what general part of the day. He was born in 1920 on the 22nd of June which was the day after the Sun had gone into Cancer and He definitely had a Virgo Moon, He was the middle child of nine, his parents were both Italian immigrants.
My mom was born in rural Oklahoma in 1928. She knew for certain that she was Libra rising and she was a Virgo with a Sag. Moon. The my sister is a double Libra (Sun and Asc.) gives great credibility to my mothers' claim as those kind of patterns pop up in families in high percentages. My brother being a Pisces with Virgo rising kind of nailed that case closed but it was also my mothers aunts in attendance and what they had wrote in correspondence that was the evidence that ended any doubt as the two of them had both written that she was born about 9:30 A. M. that morning of August 24th.
It's an observed fact, that many an advanced astrologer knows, that Cancer Men married to Virgo women is the most enduring marriage to be consistently found. Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft is one such example that I recall readily. It's been particularly observed among the marriages of Hollywood, which are notorious for being of short duration in general, regarding the endurance of Cancer men/Virgo women marriages are the most solid bonding, and lasting, marriages to be found.
My father and mother were married to each other all their lives. My mother did live another 14 years after my father passed away but He was a bit more than eight years her senior. My mother wore her wedding ring until the day she died.
But I heartily agree with you, David, that Hillary is likely trying to throw people off the astrological trail by giving out erroneous information.
I n fact, I'd be willing to wager on it.
