REBECCA KAPLAN September 20 "I Am A Real Person," Hillary Clinton Says
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was stumped Sunday when "Face the Nation" moderator John Dickerson asked her to name three words that describe "the real Hillary Clinton."
"Just three? I can't possibly do that!" Clinton said, throwing hear head back with laughter. "I mean, look, I am a real person with all the pluses and minuses that go along with being that. And I've been in the public eye for so long that I think, you know, it's like the feature that you see in some magazines sometimes, 'Real people actually go shopping,' you know?"
But Clinton has struggled with perceptions that she is inauthentic on the campaign trail, and her aides recently told the New York Times that she will work to show more humor and heart in her bid for the White House.
She has also struggled to win over voters who are attracted to candidates who seem to be outside the political establishment, something Clinton - with her roles as first lady, senator, secretary of state, and two-time presidential candidate - is not.
But she thinks she is an outsider.
"I cannot imagine anyone being more of an outsider than the first woman president," Clinton said.
"I know you're asking, 'Do we want people who have never been elected to anything, who have no political experience, who have never made any hard choices in the public area?'" she told moderator John Dickerson. "Well, voters are going to have to decide that."

Did she just come from Cool World?
The fact that she has to reassure people that “she is a real person” says all that needs to be said.
what we...inherited...the Bush...Adminstration?
RIp Van Clinton?
“I have an economic policy that is centered on raising incomes, because I think what we inherited from the Bush administration,....
So the economic doldrums of the Obama years are not of concern to Hillary. What is of concern to Hillary are alleged problems inherited by Obama from the Bush administration. But, Hillary has no answer as to why in almost 7 years, her buddy Obama has made no progress in solving those alleged inherited problems. So she will not talk about the fact that a fellow good Democrat has been in command all these years.
Hillary in three words:
Not gonna win.
Yeah she’s a real crook and habitual liar.
Let’s see.
If Mrs. Clinton moves her lips she has to be lying. It’s a rule.
So, that means she’s really not a real person.
I’m thinking a Stepford Wives experiment gone seriously awry.
Lying Leftist Loser!!
She may be real but her public persona is not.
Road Apples! I wanted to name my last Country band The Road Apples. Other guys chickened out!
Yep, that's why Hillary's for opening the doors to the country and allowing any and all illegals (those willing to vote democrat) to flood the country with cheap labor.... We're impressed Hillary....
Clinton: I'm a real person...
D1: ...a real creepy crook of a person.
Oh, I knew she was real when she ran for US Senator from NY. /s At a campaign stop in Monsey while speaking to a group of Hasidics she pulled the old “you-know-I-recently-found-out-I-have-Jewish-ancestry-in-my-family” routine. Hey, if ya can’t dazzle ‘em with brilliance, ya blind ‘em with bullsh!t.
Mrs. and Mr. Bill Clinton hang out with horses...
7 years of lib rule and they couldn’t fix it? I don’t believe GW had anything to do with the mess we’re in.
