On her fifth visit to the west coast since launching her public speaking career a year ago, Hillary delivered the keynote today at Marketo’s 2014 Marketing Nation Summit in San Francisco. She said that she is thinking about running in 2016 and will continue to think about it. This article provides some context and perspective.
Hillary Clinton Plants a Tiny Seed of Doubt
“I am obviously flattered and deeply honored to have people ask me and people encourage me. And I am thinking about it,” Clinton said in San Francisco, per NBC’s Andrew Rafferty. “But I’m going to continue to think about it for a while.” Then came the doubt part, with Clinton saying the political back-and-forth she observed as Obama’s secretary of state gave her pause about waging another presidential campaign. “I would be the first to say we’re having a political period of, frankly, dysfunction,” she added. “I saw it from afar as secretary and it was disheartening and even embarrassing to see people arguing about letting us default on our debt.”
This evening she is speaking to the World Affairs Council of Oregon in Portland. She also tweeted this.
20 years ago, women made 72 cents on the dollar to men. Today it’s still just 77 cents. More work to do.
