Hillary Clinton officially declare interest to run for US President in 2016 (WATCH VIDEO)


The former secretary of state, Hillary Clinton has officially announced her intention to run for the seat of the United States President come 2016. She made this known to the public on Sunday with a campaign video on her official website. 

The spot opens with various people talking about their hopes for 2015, ending with Clinton saying, "I'm getting ready to do something too. I'm running for President." 
"Americans have fought their way back from tough economic times but the deck is still stacked in favor of those at the top," she continues. "Everyday Americans need a champion, and I want to be that champion. So you can do more than just get by, you can get ahead and stay ahead." 
Clinton's run for the presidency will hardly come as a surprise. The politician has long been hyped as the Democratic frontrunner for the 2016 election. 

This marks Clinton's second time vying for the presidency. She first ran during the 2008 election, but lost the Democrat ticket to then-junior senator Barack Obama. Clinton later served on Obama's cabinet, working as the secretary of state from the start of his presidency in 2009 through Feb. 1, 2013. 

When Clinton, 67, left her position in 2013, political watchers took it as a sign that the former first lady was preparing for her own campaign in 2016. 

Her announcement makes her the first major candidate to seek out the Democratic nomination. On the Republican side, Senator Ted Cruz, from Texas, and Senator Rand Paul, from Kentucky, have already thrown their hats into the ring.
