emotions


Either we finally see the real Hillary, or she's working towards an Oscar. I like to think it's the former.

MIke,

I hadn't seen this clip yet. I had HEARD about it - how could you not? However, she didn't cry as the media would lead you to believe. She didn't openly sob. She had a moment of thought, perhaps clarity, when she got a tad emotional. Hell, I broke down in the Madrid airport when I was so tired I could barely walk anymore. I truly believe she wants to do what is right for the country - and healthcare and education have ALWAYS been one of her top priorities, even when she was first lady. This isn't some new platform for her. I am really tired of people dismissing her because she is a woman. Who cares? Chancellor Merkel anyone? Margaret Thatcher? These are strong women leaders. It boggles my mind in this day and age when women run billion dollar companies that it is even an issue. She is experienced, educated, articulate, and focused on the issues that affect most Americans - healthcare, education, the middle class and fixing what has deteriorated the last 7 years. I just hope more people realize this before it is too late. At the end of the day, she's right. This could very well be the most important election of our lifetimes. It could mean the difference between a thriving middle class and a caste system of rich and poor.
