Girls Power.. Hillary for President

While many see India as an undeveloped nation I like to tell them about Indira Gandhi as Prime Minister. 36 years before the US even nominated a woman in to candidacy. I am thrilled that Hillary Clinton has been selected as the Democratic Presidential Candidate.
She is someone that can be held up to young girls as an example of what it means to be a girl. What you can accomplish as a woman in America.
Below I listed just a few of the things that she has done to help and support women and children around the globe and Americans here at home.
I am proud to be from India and I can easily say that I am proud to be an American.

Even though her major initiative, the Clinton healthcare plan, failed (due to Republican obstruction), you cannot deny that it laid ground for what we have today, the Affordable Healthcare Act, something Clinton supports and will continue.

She played a leading role in the development of State Children’s Health Insurance Program, which provides the much-needed state support for children whose parents cannot afford nor provide them with adequate healthcare coverage.

She was also instrumental in the creation of the Adoption and Safe Families Act and the Foster Care Independence Act.

At the Department of Justice, she helped create the office on Violence Against Women.

Proposed a revival of the New Deal-era Home Owners’ Loan Corporation to help homeowners refinance their mortgages in the wake of the 2008 financial disaster.

Was a major proponent of sensible diplomacy which brought about a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, and brokered human rights with Burma.

Oversaw free trade agreements with our allies such as Panama, Colombia, and South Korea.

Was the most traveled Secretary of State to date.

The Clinton Foundation, founded by her and her husband, has improved the living conditions for nearly 400 million people in over 180 countries through its Initiative program.
My vote for Hillary
