Hillary Rodham Clinton appeared at a campaign event for Senate candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes in Kentucky. Grimes is hoping to unseat Senator Mitch McConnell, someone Clinton blamed for much of the partisan politics in Congress. Clintons’ comments were the strongest politically so far in the campaigns. She said, “Do you want politics in Washington, in the Congress, to look the same for the next six years? Because more than any other race in the country, this election in Kentucky is a referendum on the future,” she said. “It is a chance to say no to the guardians of gridlock and yes to government that actually delivers results for working people.”
Hillary Rodham Clinton delivered the keynote address at the Dreamforce Conference in San Francisco. Clinton spoke to the technology community and urged them to continue to innovate. The conference, sponsored by SalesForce, focused on the future of technology. Clinton said, “What we have to be really focused on now is making sure that the benefits of technology to people’s lives outweigh the pitfalls — and it is as evenly distributed as it is possible to do — creating more jobs, connecting up more families and communities, and expanding our horizons.” In addition, Clinton praised SalesForce CEO Marc Benioff for his charity work. She also voiced her support for Net Neutrality as broadband internet companies begin to stream certain businesses content faster in return for payment. Net Neutrality would ensure that the internet provider could not slow down a sites content simply because they did not pay.

Hillary Rodham Clinton hit the campaign trail appearing at an event for Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Tom Wolf. Clinton’s remarks at the event were much more political in nature. Although a number of her events since leaving the State Department have been in an activist role, she has often shied away from politics. All this changed as she began campaigning for the mid-term elections. She echoed Wolf’s political beliefs.
Clinton made strong statements about the economy and the job market, but she was careful not to call out anyone by name. She said, ““We have spent years now clawing our way back, out of the hole that was dug in 2008, but we have a lot more to do if we want to release our full potential and make sure that American families finally feel the rewards of recovery. And that’s particularly true, in my opinion, for American women. Ask yourself, why do women still get paid less than men for the same work? Why, after American women have contributed so much to our economy over the decades, do we act as if it were 1955?”
