New posters featuring Hillary Clinton seem to be trying to make her "high flying, adored" with voters.
The new images appeared at a campaign stop in San Antonio, Texas, where Clinton wooed Latino voters on Thursday. But according to NPR's Tamara Keith, the campaign says they don't know where the likeness came from. Banners were plastered all over the venue along with smaller signs and t-shirts.
The image of the black-clad Clinton profile may seem familiar to those who love either Argentinean history or musical theater — specifically Andrew Lloyd Weber's "Evita."
The 1978 musical told the story of Eva Peron, the actress turned first lady of Argentina. Seen as ruthless and cunning, she and her husband drew support from the "descamisados," or the poor and the working class, to climb to power. She eyed her own political success as well, campaigning for vice president before she died from cancer at the age of just 33. The muscial was briefly revived on Broadway in 2012.

La Clinton would follow a radical leftist path and take this country even further down the tubes into a Fascist state. She is a worn-out old hag made even older by her excesses.
Lotsa photoshop going on there.
Her photo looks photoshooped. I wonder what the unretouched photo on that poster looks like.
Hillary is like Evita?
She is trying to climb to power on the back of a famous man just like Evita climbed to power over the back of a famous man.
Evita never made it to the Argentine Presidency. If Hillary has it her way, she’ll be the new Evita.
And she has a model in today’s Argentina in the person of President Christina Fernandez De Kircher, who climbed to power on the back of another famous man.
No, I won’t Cry For Hillary!
Lets not forget Che’s, “the money comes in from every side”. That should be her theme song.
LOL!
There I was, struggling with a dam android phone finding the shots and coding on idiot virtual kb while the roadrunner left me in the dust.
;>)
She looks like she is fronting some 80’s techno-pop band.
Are those carpet fibers between her teeth, or is it....
"Wha.. what do you mean?"
Progressive socialism denies that all men are created equal. It holds that certain people constitute a natural aristocracy. It therefore creates a personality cult.
Once the idea that kings were descended from the gods, and its close cousin that kings rule by divine right were dismissed, what was left? Either that “all men are created equal,” or that some among are spontaneously superior.
Friedrich Nietzsche described this spontaneously-arising superior man as Übermensch, in his book Thus Spoke Zarathustra.
Atheist icons Lenin, Hitler, Mussolini and Mao arrayed themselves as Übermensch, even believing it themselves, and sought to create personality cults.
In North Korea, personality cult is essentially made into a new religion, with Kim Il-sung and the importance of his successors being direct blood line descendants so as to capture some of the superior man quality of the Eternal President.
We can see a certain similarity in Shi’ite Islam, with its insistence on blood lineage.
Now, there is no denying that genius has a random quality to it, and identifying the truly intelligent, creative and talented among us, is a real advantage to a free society.
A system that enables the gifted, the smart, the beautiful, the natural leaders among us, to develop their potential benefits us all.
But, this doesn’t mean that these individuals are our betters or have any claim to rule over us. Nor does this mean that other human beings are without their own talents.
So, the American system rejects the cult of personality, hereditary dynasties, or any class system, while being happy that an Elvis Presley or a Michael Jackson, a Steve Jobs or a Thomas Edison, an Oprah Winfrey or a Peggy Fleming can rise to the top.
“Don’t Cry for me Argentina”
Evita really did a few things for her people—hospitals etc... I don’t see Hillary doing anythingthing for the people—just herself.
a great deal of “retouching was done on that original photo....most of the oriiginal photo...actually appears to have been REPLACED.....
