Contending that the thousands of Americans who die every year from gun-related injuries is unacceptable, 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton this week unveiled a new policy to address gun violence.

What can be gathered from the overall national presidential poll is that Hillary Clinton seems to still be maintaining a strong lead, although slipping a bit from her ratings in last month’s results. In fact, she even wants to “take back” the 2 Amendment from more radical view holders like the NRA.
Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, have cultivated a far-reaching donor and political network in California, having raised money here for a quarter-century.
The move also follows comments made by McCarthy, a leading candidate for House speaker, who said in an interview on Fox News last week: “Everybody thought Hillary Clinton was unbeatable, right?” We put together a Benghazi special committee, a select committee.
“I want to work with Congress, but I will look at ways as president”. Although she has not been found to have done anything illegal in all investigations to date, Clinton has been the subject of intense Congressional scrutiny because of questions concerning her usage of her own, private email account while she was Secretary of State.
“I think there may be a little concern that most of the attention, at least when it comes to debates, has been on the Republican side”, said DiCamillo, noting that a Biden candidacy would add more interest to the Democratic primary.
By highlighting her gun control plans here, Clinton is making plain she sees the issue as timely and broadly politically palatable for Democrats and independent voters.
“If you only reinstate Glass-Steagall, you don’t go after all these other institutions in what is called the shadow banking system, hedge funds and other financial entities that have too much power in our economy”, she said.
“The reflexive reaction of the left is to say we need more gun laws”.
While introducing her plan at a New Hampshire community college Monday, Clinton brought up on stage Nicole Hockley, whose son Dylan was among the 20 children killed at Sandy Hook Elementary in December 2012.
-Views about this are broad-based and include 65% of Democratic primary voters now supporting Clinton and 68% of those backing Sanders. She responded: “Judy, I don’t know anything about it. I can’t comment on it any further than I have”.

Pointing to former Florida governor Jeb Bush’s controversial “stuff happens” remark following the Roseburg shootings, Clinton said “that’s an admission of defeat and surrender”.
