Hillary Clinton deserves to be considered as a presidential candidate.
For one thing, she is highly qualified. And secondly, she is arguably more liberal than Bill Clinton or Barack Obama.
Here's the main reason Hillary should be considered... you Democrats wanna see another huge voter turnout in 2016? You wanna see voters who are FIRED UP AND READY TO GO?
Then nominate a woman. Because it's going to be the same thing we had in 2008, all over again. HUGE turnouts and highly motivated electorate. And we will win.
It doesn't have to be Hillary Clinton, but she deserves consideration for sure. Personally, I love her and think she has been doing a great job as Secretary of State.
