The best candidate
We believe Hillary Clinton is the best candidate to lead the Democratic Party to victory in a general election contest and she is the only major party candidate who will shatter that glass ceiling over the Oval Office.
We will not pull back from this historic opportunity the best candidate for the White House would be the first woman elected to the White House.
Eight years ago, when Clinton conceded the primary fight to Barack Obama, she said, As we gather here today in this historic, magnificent building, the 50th woman to leave this Earth is orbiting overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House.
Although we werent able to shatter that highest, hardest glass ceiling this time, thanks to you, its got about 18 million cracks in it, and the light is shining through like never before, filling us all with the hope and the sure knowledge that the path will be a little easier next time.
OK, the path may not be easier, but Clinton has stayed this course and we are with her.
Bernie Sanders repeatedly has told voters to compare records thats records, not messages. Weve done that and we keep coming around to Clinton former secretary of state, twice-elected U.S. senator and former first lady of the United States and the state of Arkansas.
With decades of experience, she knows the problems we face foreign and domestic and she offers real solutions, practical policies, workable fixes to progress after this long paralysis in Washington.
