candidate plan for presidency
Hillary will:
Give working families a raise, and tax relief that helps them manage rising costs.
Create good-paying jobs and get pay rising by investing in infrastructure, clean energy, and scientific and medical research to strengthen our economy and growth.
Close corporate tax loopholes and make the most fortunate pay their fair share.
Hillary believes the defining economic challenge of our time is raising incomes for hardworking Americans.
Too many families are working harder and harder, but still not getting ahead. Our country is standing again, but we’re not yet running the way we should be. From her first day in office to the last, Hillary Clinton will fight for you and for more take-home pay so you can get ahead and stay ahead.
Hillary understands that in order to raise incomes, we need strong growth, fair growth, and long-term growth. And she has a plan to get us there.
Hillary Clinton Should Be Our Next President!
She definitely knows the political turf, the rules of engagement, and seems to be reasonably well respected internationally.
It's time we had a woman President, and she's far and away the best qualified of the potential contenders.
It would depend a lot on how well she communicated that she "got it" that she works forUS, not "she's the boss". Some of her lack of appeal centers around the "I know whats best for you" attitude she has exuded in the past.
It would also depend a lot on who else was running.
I'm a liberal-leaning moderate, and having a stable economy with a good long term outlook is my priority. Some jackass who comes in with "the government needs to be run like a business" attitude, and even worse, "business experience", would make it a no brainer to vote for Hilary if she were running.
