President Hillary Clinton? Nothing is inevitable in the 2016presidential campaign.

Last Sunday, the former Secretary of State, New York Senator, and First Lady, Hillary Clinton, announced that she was running for the Democratic nomination for the 2016 presidential election. Lori Cox Han takes a critical look at the notion, put forward by many, that Clinton’s nomination and win are ‘inevitable’. She argues that her name recognition is an asset, but also a liability given the risk of ‘Clinton fatigue’ among Democratic voters. She writes that Clinton not only faces trust issues, but she also has yet to articulate why she is running, which could be problematic given the left wing of her party’s preference for others such as Senator Elizabeth Warren.
