    Yes, Inspirational Is Nice

    Hillary Clinton may be very capable but comes with a lot of baggage that even WE need to overcome, and if moderates, liberals, and Democrats perceive that Clinton has a lot to overcome, how about the rest of the country?

    At the very least she needs to be a good speaker. Can someone please help her become a better speaker by adding warmth to her delivery? (Doesn't she have Hollywood friends to help her out?) If Clinton is an authentic moderate, she needs to COME OFF as an authentic moderate. If she is not selling females how is she going to sell males? Image is part of this, if not Everything.
