Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) introduced former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton after after a meeting of the House Democratic Caucus by saying, “… when she enters the Oval Office, she would be one of the most prepared people to do so in recent history.”

Leader Pelosi’s remarks:

Good morning, everyone. Today was, as you can imagine, a very special occasion for the House Democratic Caucus. We were pleased to welcome, in the fullest sense of that word, Secretary Hillary Clinton to our Caucus for a discussion of how we go forward. A good deal of time in the Caucus was spent on the economy, the creation of jobs, entrepreneurship, and all that goes into making that a success for our country.

Excellent academic background - culminating in a law degree from Yale Law School, and.....

....although "merely" spouse (not a slight whatsoever), a VERY close working partner with:

Arkansas Attorney General for two years
Governor of Arkansas for FIVE terms
President of the United States for two terms

Then:

Elected Senator from the important state of New York for two terms (the first FEMALE Senator from NY)
Secretary of State for the United States for four years

The United States IS ready for Hillary Clinton, and she's ready and immensely qualified to lead us for the next eight years!

7. Yes, there is progress; 50 years ago no one would imagine two women with such political power.

But there is much, much more to do.

Hillary has the experience and judgement to be the first woman President.
