There's one person Hillary Clinton really wants the voters of America to get to know more than anybody else. And her name is Dorothy Rodham.
Dorothy is Clinton’s late mother. She died in 2011. But she's playing a starring role in her daughter’s presidential campaign, and is the focus of Clinton’s first television ads.
On Tuesday, Clinton’s campaign will begin broadcasting two TV ads in Iowa and New Hampshire. The one-minute spots, which will air over the course of five weeks, emphasize Clinton’s mother’s story over her own.
The first ad, titled “Dorothy,” is almost completely devoid of any discussion of Clinton’s credentials. Instead, it's focused on recounting her mother’s trauma-filled childhood.
Clinton, who narrates the story over old photos of her mom, describes how her mother is the person who most influenced her desire to fight for families and to run for president.
“I think about all the Dorothy’s all over America who fight for their families, who never give up,” Clinton says while video of a mother tucking her daughter in to bed plays. “That’s why I’m doing this. That’s why I’ve always done this. For all the Dorothy’s.”

Why doesn’t she just produce an ad highlighting all her accomplishments?..........................
The mute button is very strong here.
Great! So now Hillary chases tornados!!
This is the Dorothy who named her hideous daughter after Sir Edmund Hillary.
That is the best I’ve ever seen Hillary look in recent years - even with her fake eye color.
so because Hillary’s mother had a difficult childhood, and was helped quite a bit by the charity of others, we should elect Hillary president????
Because Hillary’s extended family going back to that generation was dysfunctional, we should elect Hillary president??
RE: This is the Dorothy who named her hideous daughter after Sir Edmund Hillary.
Yes, before he climbed Mount Everest.
"... and your little dog, too."
That’s one hell of an overbite...
LOL!!
Who else could her ads be about? Certainly not herself.
Her polls are down around her ankles!
No one wants her. Not even Bill. She has eschewed any and all help from him, daring not to risk additional fall out from his own cadre of political gaffes and occasional scandalous escapades, while out with the girls.
Hillary IS desperate and this 2 million dollar expenditure proves it. She is trying just to keep her donors! Nevermind the lagging interest of Democrats who are begging for ABH, anybody but Hillary.
Yes, that was my first reaction. What does her mother have to do with her “qualifications” to be POTUS? I’m still waiting for someone to come up with an accomplishment by this woman (aside from marrying Bill). There are none.
Will she be digging-up her mothers’s dead body to take on campaign appearances??? What does her dead mother say about BENGHAZI???”:
I would say the same thing except for a couple of things. That hideous dress. And she is made up like a teenager. Lol
Which one does not look like the other two???
Hitler had a mother too.
Hillary always has an arrogant, superior demeanor. Even her walk is like that. Or is it that I just detest the witch.
But I will say that in the Dorothy video there is a strong resemblance between Chelsea and her grandmother when she was young.
