After those conversations, Hillary Clinton went right to work. Clinton can claim a feminist victory by virtue of winning the nomination.

In Philadelphia, the Democrats’ heaviest hitters including Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and Clinton’s running mate, Virginia Sen. Let me ask you: Have you even read the US Constitution? “We will rise to the challenge, just as we always have”. And we saw unimaginable horror and cruelty.
– Promising Americans a steady hand, Hillary Clinton cast herself Thursday night as a unifier for divided times, an experienced leader steeled for a volatile world.
“Tonight, we’ve reached a milestone in our nation’s march toward a more ideal union: the first time that a major party has nominated a woman for president”, Clinton said.
Indeed, the first day of the convention was noticeable for the number of protests from supporters of Mr Sanders, the people who said they were “Bernie or Bust”.
“If it was up to Donald Trump, he never would have been in America”, Khan said, describing his family as “patriotic American Muslims”. She’s held it in some form for two-dozen years.
“I get it that some people just don’t know what to make of me”. “We need to have the opportunity to have that whole part of society that’s really been pushed over to the side and into the shadows to be able to speak”.
Clinton, too, knows the importance of visibly respecting, and courting, her predecessor; Al Gore’s decision to immediately and markedly distance himself from Bill Clinton most certainly contributed to Gore’s defeat. As a candidate, she has an image problem.
On Tuesday night, Bill Clinton took to the stage.
Polling shows voters indeed are already more prepared to vote against something than for something in 2016. – Hillary Clinton is not known for her public cuddliness.

“Both groups have strong feelings about what’s going on”, she said. “Watching her trajectory from First Lady until now, and seeing how even in the midst of misogyny, she has just kept going, kept advancing”. Clinton said she was happy for woman, considering the historic moment and also for men, because she said that when a barrier is broken, it helps everyone, saying to imagine what could happen, “when there are no ceilings”. “We’ve been driven underground because people attack us”, MacPherson said.
Clinton accepted the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination acknowledging that both her party and the country remain deeply split – perhaps more so – eight years after her former rival, Barack Obama, won the White House.
Hillary Clinton is the corrupt insider. Young women in particular were resistant to voting for her during the primary season, often preferring Bernie Sanders instead.
I think it’s a real possibility. “You might have noticed, I love talking about mine”. Trump embraced empty slogans and sound-bite solutions, so Clinton emphasized expertise and qualifications.
There is evidence that Democrats will coalesce around Clinton, but it remains to be seen how much excitement her campaign will be able to inspire during the general election. If the campaign can’t pull it off, it won’t be for lack of trying. “That is the only way we can turn our progressive platform into real change for America”. His very unpredictability and inexperience would nearly certainly lead to greater global uncertainty and could encourage military aggression by other countries. And here we are believing that we are the best at everything, and we are still struggling.
