Hillary Rodham Clinton

Hillary Rodham Clinton graduated from Yale Law School. She had served as secretary of state, senator from New York, first lady of the United States, first lady of Arkansas, a practicing lawyer and law professor. She's never forgotten where she came from. Hillary has fought for the needs of children everywhere and social justice. She was inspired by Martin Luther King Jr. after she heard him give a speech.

     Our former First Lady of the United States ran for president of the United States and lost. She did win the people popular vote with 2,868,686 more votes, but lost the electoral vote by 77. The choice expressed collectively by the electoral college, which determines the winner of elections for president and vice-president in the US. If she had won, she would have been the first female president of the United States a great step for women.
