Hillary Clinton - NY Daily News

CALGARY She is the odds-on favourite right now to become the next President of the United States if she decides to run for the position as one of the worlds most powerful and influential leaders.

But before then, Hillary Rodham Clinton, former U.S. Senator, Secretary of State, and first lady, will pay a visit to Calgary.

Clinton will have a public speaking engagement in the city the morning of Thursday March 6 at the Telus Convention Centre. Tickets for the event will go on sale Tuesday through Ticketmaster.

The event is being produced by Calgary entrepreneurs Christian Darbyshire and Andy McCreath of tinePublic Inc., which in the past has brought to the city such well-known personalities as former U.S. president George W. Bush, former British prime minister Tony Blair, Oprah Winfrey and former California governor and actor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The Calgary entrepreneurs declined to comment when contacted about Clintons visit.

Clintons appearance in Calgary is sure to draw plenty of interest.

A recent poll by Washington Post-ABC News has her overwhelmingly positioned as the front-runner in the Democratic Party nomination process for the 2016 presidential campaign. In fact, she was 61 percentage points ahead of U.S. Vice-President Joe Biden the largest margin in the history of the poll.

But Clinton, wife of former U.S. President Bill Clinton, has not yet tipped her hat on whether or not she will run in the presidential campaign. She would be the first female president in the history of the U.S. if she won.

The graduate of Yale law school was born Oct. 26, 1947 in Chicago.

From 2009 to 2013, she was the 67th Secretary of State serving under President Barack Obama.

Hillary Clinton coming to Calgary

Will President Obama again block Hillary Clinton from becoming president?

In 2008, the odds of a Democrat winning the White House were very good. The political environment in the aftermath of eight years of President George W. Bush was set for a change to an opposing political party. President Bush's approval ratings were way down, many in the country were tired of the way he ran Washington, D.C., and they were frustrated by his apparent inability to bring the country together.

Any Democrat who got the nomination that year had a high likelihood of winning the general election. As I have said before, the most dominant factor in presidential elections is the existing environment parties and candidates face.

In that year, then-Sen. Obama became the Democratic standard bearer, having beaten Hillary Clinton in a close primary contest. He then went on to win a fairly easy victory over John McCain in the general election, as the Arizona senator struggled to distance himself from all the baggage that came from President Bush's second term.

It wasn't the tactics, or the media, or the campaign staffs that determined victory -- by and large, it was where the country wanted to go.

Today, Obama is nearly in the exact same position as Bush was at this same point. His approval numbers are down, the country has lost faith and trust in his leadership, and voters hunger for someone who can make Washington work again.

The political environment at the moment (and we have two years to go until 2016, so things could change) is tilted in favor of a Republican winning the White House no matter who the Democratic nominee will be.

Hillary Clinton looks to be on the verge of running in a Democratic nomination race with virtually no real opposition. She will be extremely difficult to beat. She starts out nearly 60 points ahead, and all other strong challengers are seemingly ceding her the nomination.

But she faces a very difficult general election environment if the Republicans nominate any reasonable candidate. This difficult general election environment created in no small part by Obama's two terms in office.

Obama, having beaten Hillary the first time in 2008, may actually cause her to lose if she is the nominee in 2016 because independent voters have a strong desire to change from the current incumbent's leadership.

Biggest Impediment for Hillary Clinton: Her Former Boss

For Hillary Clinton, the best Super Bowl defense is some offense unless its the other way around.

The former secretary of state roiled the Twitterverse midway through tonights big game with a rare tweet that seemed to respond to the aggressive media coverage shes drawn of late.

Its so much more fun to watch FOX when its someone else being blitzed & sacked! #SuperBowl, Clinton Tweeted from @HillaryClinton.

No specifics followed from her or from the Clinton camp, but the tweet was immediately interpreted as a reference to Fox News Channels coverage of all things Clinton, starting with continued questioning of the tragic incident in Benghazi, Libya.

Her Tweet came just hours after President Obama sparred with Fox News host Bill OReilly over Foxs coverage of his administration in a pre-game interview.

OReilly questioned Obama on the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi and the IRS scandal two issues the president said have been drummed up by Fox News.

These kinds of things keep on surfacing in part because you and your TV station will promote them, the president said in the live 10-minute interview.
