'Citizens, you will elect me!' Hillary Clinton gets skewered by SNL as she prepares to launch....

Saturday Night Live poked fun at Hillary Clinton just hours before she is set to announce she is running for president, by mocking her decision to tell the world via social media.

The pair decide to record a cellphone video of the Democrat for her campaign launch in a bid to make her come across as soft and approachable, following concerns she will not be able to relate to ordinary voters.

During the scene, which includes a cameo from her husband Bill, they insist her second run at the White House will be about the people and not centered around her.

But, despite desperate attempts to not be self-centered, Clinton seems incapable of talking about anyone but herself and brushes off her potential competitors.

On her first try at recording the video she screams in a dictatorial manner: 'Citizens, you will elect me. I will be your leader.'

For the second attempt, they try to get Clinton to stop saying 'I' or her name, but she also fails immediately.

'Hello, 'tis I, Hillary Clinton,' she says.

The two women are then joined by Bill Clinton (Darrel Hammond), who sneaks up behind his wife as she is filming.

He says how grateful he is that camera phones did not exist when he was president - because he would probably be in jail if they were.

From there they decide to make talk about how difficult the election will be, and the tough challenges Clinton will face from other Democrats.

She starts talking about potential rival Martin O'Malley, the former Maryland governor, but the starts laughing, saying: 'He sounds like a Simpsons character.'

Her husband makes a second appearance at this point with his saxophone, playing the theme tune to The Simpsons and revealing that he will be his wife's Vice President.

Well, the liberals at Saturday Night Live are not going to go easy on Hillary, in the manner in which comedians have gone easy on Obama all these years.

They aren't, they don't want Hitlery because they think she is unelectable and old, so they are trying to destroy her. In her place they will put Fauxcahontas which is fine by me because she's a total scatterbrain who would get destroyed in a debate unless the RINO party is dumb enough to nominate another RINO.

I wonder why. Perhaps they're gearing up for a Sen. Warren run.

That sounds like a death knell. If the media ever stops covering for a leftists lies, transgressions, and otherwise unlikeable characteristics he or she is finished.

“revealing that he will be his wife’s Vice President.”

Actually, Hillary’s chances would go up dramatically if Bill were her VP running mate.

That’s the part I don’t understand.

NBC being part of Comcast is a primary Obama regime affiliate.

So that leads you to think the Chicago Mob is going to run somebody else.

Just to prove they still know how to do it, the girl playing Hillary had Her Ice Queen imperial attitude down cold.

It is believed she will have a string of celebrity backers for her second White House bid....Dems are well known for their ignoring their failed candidates first time around. Why Hillary for a second chance? Why not Al Gore?

The last 24 hrs have been harsh for Hillary...

Hugh Hewitt with the weekend at Bearnies comment, Ana Navarro and the Estrogen comment, and now SNL.

Ouch, they haven't left a mark, they are just probably speaking America's inner zeitgeist.

There has been plenty of anti-Obama animosity at SNL the last 2 or 3 years...
