I am so proud of Hillary right now (Hillary Clinton Group)

She is actually listening to people. She sits down with people to ask them what they want, not what she wants. She sits down with small business owners to ask "how can I help." She sits down with women to hear what they say about education, child care, planned parenthood etc... She never worries about polls and I know this because I get at least 5 emails a day from her campaign and not one has ever said anything about polls or poll numbers. She never worries about attracting large crowds because she doesn't have to. She is loved the world over and it shows in what people who know her say about her. She never rants and raves at any of her speaking engagements unless it is at someone in the GOP. She has never said an unkind word about any of her fellow Democratic candidates and she won't. She has weathered every scandal, sexist statement, a bias media and every unkind/nasty online post made about her with grace and dignity that befits any candidate for President. She makes me proud to be a Democrat.

She's trying to learn what the people that she'll represent come January 20, 2017, are really looking for and how they feel about our government.

She'll be an excellent President. Well maybe not as good as Obama, but who can be?
