65. This is a silly issue - the photo used and these are all nice pictures

Mon Apr 13, 2015, 12:46 PM

She is in her 60s and she is not a young starlet chosen for her looks.

In all the pictures, she looks healthy, focused and intelligent. I actually like the photo chosen better than any of your alternatives. Not to mention, I think all of them are old. Two have long hair - something she changed over 2 years ago and the middle one, I think is the one on her book - so it is likely over a year old. (Consider the comments had she used a photo over a year old)

This is also sexist. Did anyone question the photos Obama used? What of John Kerry? Al Gore? I really don't remember anything.
