This is an amazing story even if it turns out not be completely true. If she has political ambitions (forget about employing 3 previous cabinet secretaries), she could easily be the president of USA in 5 years time, but that would be a loss of her talents.
N.B: There is a distinct lack of customers/doctors feedback on theranos website or on the internet.

I had been looking at articles on this for the
