(15,325 posts)Something she's always been involved in since her college days, actually.
I'd hope to hear more of her brilliant mind, speaking publicly on foreign & global affairs as well as her sincere detailed policy directives of our domestic needs.

(9,951 posts)... the only answer is no. She also praises Biden whenever asked. I trust the 2016 popular winner will be working where she can help for the midterms and, later, to re-elect Biden/Harris!

It would seem obvious that Mrs Clinton is either truly retired or super low profile.
In general, this is not a productive thread.
Get back to the program

I like Kamala and I like Mayor Pete.
