12. Her Rise to Greatness
For years it seemed like Hillary Clinton was going to be running for President. From the first time Barack Obama came on the screen, we didn’t know who to root for. He would be the first African American president and that would be amazing and so would the first female president.
Obviously we ended up getting Barack but this time around, it was her time. Hillary was meant to run and she should have won the presidency. We can see that in how many people voted for her. And while she didn’t win, watching her rise to greatness is truly something that we will never forget.
Because this is all about how inspiring she is, just think about how wonderful it was to see this woman who we knew as the First Lady rise to the position of Secretary of State and then move on to run for president herself.
She showed everyone that she was a powerful and strong woman and she wouldn’t be stopped no matter how hard someone tried. Hillary forced everyone to see how great she could be and it was something truly magical to see.
And still, I think, she is still rising. We haven’t seen the last of Hillary.
