Daily Kos for Hillary Clinton

Goal thermometer

Hillary Clinton made history as the first woman to earn a major party’s endorsement for president.

Hillary Clinton’s lifelong record of accomplishments is extraordinary. You are no doubt familiar with many of them. At the Democratic National Convention, her husband shared some of the other lesser-known but equally impressive passages of her career, in great personal detail. But the most ringing—and most succinct—endorsement of Clinton’s readiness for the job came from the man who first battled then worked closely alongside her for years, Barack Obama:

“I can say with confidence there has never been a man or a woman, not me, not Bill, more qualified than Hillary Clinton to serve as President of the United States of America. I hope you don’t mind, Bill, but I was just telling the truth, man.”
If you saw Bill’s face light up after Obama delivered these remarks, you know that he couldn’t have agreed more. We feel exactly the same way.

As we’ve written before—as everyone watching this election ought to appreciate by now—the stakes couldn’t possibly be higher. Hillary Clinton is running against an outright fascist who doesn’t believe in constitutional government, is eager to lash out against American citizens, and wants to withdraw from world affairs in the most destructive way possible. We must not, under any circumstances, allow Donald Trump to become president.

But this endorsement is not merely against our opponent. It is very strongly for Hillary Clinton, too. No one understands the presidency better than she does. No one knows how to fight Republicans harder than she does. And no one will do everything in her power to promote as much progressive change as humanly possible, whatever obstacles there might be, as she will.
