Ankeny, Iowa (CNN).....................
Clinton's plan, pitched in a state where 35% of residents live in rural areas, involves more spending for government programs that provide capital and credit to rural business owners, farmers and ranchers.
Clinton will push for increasing the number of rural business investment companies that make investments in rural businesses, and will suggest creating a "national infrastructure bank and invest in infrastructure to improve the country's rural transportation, water, and broadband infrastructure," according to a factsheet on the plan provided to CNN.
"America's rural communities lie at the heart of what makes this country great," the factsheet said. "Despite their critical role in our economy, too many rural communities are not sharing in our nation's economic gains."..........................
The 2016 Democratic front-runner will be joined at all her events by Vilsack, who formally endorsed Clinton on Tuesday.

(6,283 posts)Trump is like the ringmaster of the clown car in a three ring circus. I'm still waiting for that thing on his head to turn on him. I would like to see a caricature of Trump with four eyes. The two in his head, and two sinister ones peeking out from underneath the mop.
Hillary is just now shifting into third gear. Fourth gear she crosses the finish line leaving all others in a cloud of dust.
