Washington, D.C. -- Americans (click here) once again are most likely to name Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton as the man and woman living anywhere in the world they admire most, as they have for the past 10 years. The pair retain their titles this year, although by much narrower margins than in the past. Obama edges out Donald Trump, 17% to 14%, while Clinton edges out Michelle Obama, 9% to 7%....

In Gallup Poll, Donald Trump wasn't even on the radar before 2015.

President Obama exceeds all other admired men and Hillary Clinton is the most admired woman. The media reports Trump gossip and bombast. His statements have no basis in truth. I think the Democrats need to stop believing Hillary Clinton is poison to their message. Hillary should have won the 2016 election. That is not poison.

Former Secretary Clinton has always been admired. She is always popular. What occurred in 2016 was a crime. There was a thumb on the electorate scale through dishonest and illegal means. Director Mueller would never simply waste the country's money for the sake of a job. His investigates are providing indictments that hold up to judges. Every voter needs to realize the USA had an election altered by nefarious people. That is serious. It is the country. The Democrats need to stand in the breach and hold on tight. 

Hillary Clinton has been dedicated to the country. She is a great woman and always will be. She is not evil nor criminal. Any complaint about Hillary Clinton for political hubris has never held up and never will.

Another tribute to American women is Oprah Winfrey.

...Oprah Winfrey Finishes in Top 10 for 30th Time


Hillary Clinton has finished in the top 10 26 times, the fifth most among women. She trails two of this year's other top 10 finishers -- Queen Elizabeth II (who holds the record for women, with 49 appearances) and Oprah Winfrey (named for the 30th time, third behind former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher's 34 appearances and ahead of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis' 28 during their lifetimes)....


The Democrats are seeing excitement among women within their ranks. I read a local free newspaper stating the candidates for office on the Democratic side are all women. Women are excited about taking the initiative to become a familiar face with the people of their districts. There is a great deal of pride to be found in the young, minorities and women candidates emerging with the ambition to win. It is a great party. The only success by Republicans to degrade any Democratic candidate is through media. Democrats need to overcome the media assault. It can be done. Alabama speaks eons to the awakening of the electorate.
