Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton To Meet For Private Lunch On Monday, White House Announces

Nobody knows what it is about but I have a hunch it is about the next Supreme Court appointee?
==========================

<snip>
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will join President Barack Obama for lunch on Monday, the White House Press Office announced Sunday evening.

The noon appointment, which will be held in the President's private dining room, is closed to the press. The White House did not disclose the purpose of the meeting. However, as with anything related to Clinton these days, discussion in the media will likely circle back to one topic: 2016.

Several prominent Democrats have already voiced their support for another Clinton presidential run. In May, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) called Clinton the "best qualified" person for the party's nomination. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) commented last week that Clinton would "handle things probably even better" in the White House than her husband, former President Bill Clinton.

NBC is so confident Clinton will play a starring role in 2016, it just announced plans for a four-episode miniseries about the former Secretary of State, set to debut during the heat of the general election. A big-screen dramatization of the her life is also slated for a 2016 release.

I don't like Hillary. Of course she would be better than a republican but who wouldn't be?
I really hope Liz Warren seizes the moment and goes for it. If not I hope Biden runs.

Hillary would be competent, but Liz Warren would be competent AND electrifying.
