Now Clinton has persuaded pop star Demi Lovato to join the fray.

And now, the not-so-good: Many Clinton supporters were unhappy after she spoke for less than five minutes to a crowd of more than 1,000 people, some of whom had waited more than an hour to see her, according to The Guardian.
But Clinton did not refer to the Vermont senator, or much else, in her speech.
This news, of course, comes after news that Clinton has been steadily losing her lead in the polls to Senator Bernie Sanders.
Clinton revealed she’s also a big fan of Demi, who has been open about her struggles with eating disorders and mental health issues, calling her “an extraordinary example for so many in the way that you have talked about issues that people find sometimes hard to talk about”.
Over the past few months, Katy Perry, Lena Dunham, Abby Wambach and Scandal star Tony Goldwyn have all hit the trail on Clinton’s behalf – a move meant to woo youth voters, many of whom have rallied behind Sanders. “I am voting for her because I truly believe that there is nobody more qualified to run this country-our country-than our secretary of state”.
“The fact that she could be first woman president is so cool to me”.
The singer made her political preference known as publicly as possible on Thursday, actually campaigning alongside Democratic hopeful Hillary Clinton in Iowa.

“It was shorter than I expected”. “She’s a really strong woman, and I’m really drawn to that”, said Stephanie Schulz, a 20-year-old University of Iowa student.
