Clinton Makes Campaign Stop In Columbus


By: Katy Andersen
Posted on: Thursday, September 10, 2015


Hundreds of people gathered in downtown Columbus Thursday morning to hear from Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

The rally at the Columbus Athenaeum is Clinton’s first stop to the swing-state’s capitol as a 2016 presidential candidate.

“I am going to be a strong advocate for families because when families are strong, America is strong,” Clinton said. “If we don’t support families in dealing with the challenges we face, we can’t have the country we know that they want.”........


In the end, Clinton says by addressing women’s rights, college students and the middle class, America will be a place where everyone has a shot at achieving their dreams.

“We can build an America where we are working with one another, helping one another, having each other’s back again. And we can build an America where every father can say to his daughter ‘you can grow up to be president of the United States.”

They are provided, you ignore them.

You can't deny the reality, it was sparsely attended.

7. There are also men there, probably men who do not have problems with supporting women's issues.
