    Hillary Clinton has just announced she is running in a tweet

    "I'm running for president. Everyday Americans need a champion and I want to be that champion"

    I doubt she'll become the next US president. Timing isn't great either now a book just published claims she physically abused her husband (although some say he deserved it :p)

    "Make no mistake. The days of the internal combustion engine are definitely numbered" - Quentin Willson, 1997

    I think she is a dead cert for the democrat nomination, as is Carly for the Republican one.
    So the next president will be female which is about the only interesting thing I can think of saying.

    Bill would be the first three time White House resident, all whilst not wearing the trousers.

    She has years of experience of driving Bills through the house, so she should be well able for the job.

    Meh - whoever runs will be as corrupt and ultimatly useless ans and of the predecessots.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    How much of a ruthless cnut do you need to be to reach the top of American politics?

    Most of them look slimier than an Eel in an oil slick.

    I've never heard of her either.

    "She has frequently been ranked as one of the worst tech CEOs of all time." - well that's promising!

    2 party system with the possibility of 4 of the last 5 presidents coming from 2 families in a country with 320million people. "Democracy".

    I thought that historically the Democrats had a bit more to blush about than Republicans when it came to the issue of slaves.

    You would think she is a shoe - 50% of population being women, you would imagine they would all vote for her, just to break the glass ceiling.
