Hillary Clinton for 2016 Presidency According to the New York Times, Hillary Clinton has built the largest campaign operation of any potential candidate so far. She has now announced that she is running for the 2016 Presidential Campaign as a Democratic candidate. Clinton was the former Secretary of State from 2009 to 2013. In 2001, she was elected to the U.S. Senate and became the first lady to hold national office. As we all know, Hillary Clinton was previously the first lady of the United States when her husband Bill Clinton was president from 1993 to 2001. During Bill Clinton’s presidential campaign, Hillary wasn’t just any first lady, in fact she was just as involved in politics as her husband was. Hillary was interested in various women’s causes. In 1995, she helped create the Violence against Women office in the Department of Justice and also promoted equal rights for women. In 1997, she created the Children’s Health Insurance Program, which provided healthcare through state funding for children whose parents couldn’t afford to pay for insurance. When Clinton sworn in on January 3, 2001, she became the first wife of any president to run and win national office and was the first woman to be elected U.S. Senate from the state of New York. In order for Hillary Clinton to win this campaign election, she must win over the Obama coalition, which includes blacks and young, college-educated white voters, the white working-class women, and the Hispanic population. She must convince them that she is on their side. Clinton is primarily focused on the children and grandchildren of the voters. She plans to highlight issues with women in particular, which includes early childhood education, affordable child care, higher minimum wage, and paid family and medical leave. Clinton first wants to invest in an economy that works for working Americans. She believes that increased investment will lead to economic growth, which will
