Clinton to campaign in Iowa Friday
Earlier this week, more of Clinton’s private emails from her time as secretary of state were released. The region is home to many Puerto Rican voters and Clinton, referring to it as “Puerto Rico’s 79th municipality”, said every presidential candidate should “give attention to Puerto Rico and should remind our fellow Americans Puerto Ricans are American citizens”.
“I have never heard of a candidate, never, who has received huge amounts of money from oil, from coal, from Wall Street, from the military-industrial complex, not one candidate say, oh, these campaign contributions will not influence me”, remarked fellow presidential candidate Bernie Sanders in the debate.
As Boston.com noted, Clinton was not the only one to use Romney’s nickname.
She also leads 45-44 percent over Rubio compared to latter’s 46 – 41 percent lead over her last month.
A strong majority of registered US voters does not believe that Hillary Clinton is honest or trustworthy as the Federal Bureau of Investigation continues its probe into the former secretary of state’s personal email system.
Clinton said that there has been a huge improvement in Latin America since she visited Montevideo, Uruguay’s capital, in 1998 to discuss women’s leadership, NBC News wrote.
Two-thirds of Clinton’s 30,000 work-related emails are now at least partially in the public eye – minus numerous redactions by the State Department.
The Clinton campaign responded by saying Clinton has campaigned hard in Iowa and is continuing to do so.
The holiday event is the same day Hillary Clinton will headline a fundraiser featuring her husband, Bill Clinton, and a performance by Sting.
But the fact that Clinton has secured such a large portion of organized labor’s support ahead of the first nominating contests in February shows the momentum she is gaining ahead of the general election in November 2016, when union workers are traditionally key on-the-ground foot soldiers for Democratic candidates. Before Clinton entered the race, Warren spoke about her in glowing terms and joined all of her fellow female Democratic senators in signing a 2013 letter urging Clinton to run.
Among the topics Clinton has spoken about during recent stump stops are the economy, helping the middle class and women’s issues.
Later, after several congratulatory emails were exchanged among Clinton’s staff, political consultant Mark Penn sent an email to Clinton gently suggesting that perhaps it wasn’t wise to lose her temper in the hearing.
