Hillary Rodham Clinton is running for president, leaning on a message of middle-class rescue and claims that America’s economy is ‘still stacked in favor of those at the top,’ according to a campaign video that went online Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n
The campaign’s official announcement to reporters, perhaps finished in haste, included an embarrassing mistake in the omission of a key word. Hillary, it said, has ‘fought children and families all her career.’<\/p>\n
Her video makes a point of featuring same-sex couples and Hispanic citizens.<\/p>\n
‘I’m getting ready to do something,’ Clinton says in the brief ad, following a series of clips of ordinary-looking Americans describing what they’re ‘getting ready’ for.<\/p>\n
‘I’m running for president,’ she says. <\/p>\n
‘Everyday Americans need a champion, and I want to be that champion.’ <\/p>\n
That message is a daring one, given Clinton’s wealth. When she left the U.S. State Department in 2013, her financial disclosure report showed that her combined net worth with her husband was between $5.2 and $25.5 million. Millions more rolled in when she published her memoirs.<\/p>\n
She famously claimed last year that she and former president Bill Clinton were ‘dead broke’ whenthey left the White House in 2001 \u2013 when they moved into a palatial home in a tree-lined New York City suburb. <\/p>\n
Clinton’s chief of staff John Podesta pushed a similar ‘middle-class’ message, but stepped on her announcement with his own email to a group of donors. <\/p>\n
