[ooyala code="ttOXU1eDrjhkQN6MoeUWEv2cJReBntcj" player_id="6dfaa960439444b1bb81de068212c464"]Los Angeles, (ENTRAVISION). While Republicans have already held two debates, the Democrats are having their first debate tomorrow in Las Vegas, Nevada. There, four democratic candidates, whose main priority so far has been to get people familiarized with their names, will face one of the most currently recognized political figures: Hillary Clinton.
Although Clinton has a head start in a matter of money and popularity, it has not been an easy campaign for her.
This is the Hillary Clinton who will take the stage on Tuesday:
Full name: Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton
Age: 69 years
Religion: Methodist
Current occupation: Unemployed
Strengths: Her marriage to former President Bill Clinton has kept her in the public eye for nearly 40 years, plus her own political career as a Senator and Secretary of State has made her an important part of the country's political life for 15 years.
Another undeniable strength is her ability to raise funds. Among the democrats, Clinton is the only candidate who has raised the most money, with the objective- that seems very achievable of raising $100 million before the end of the year.
Clinton also counts on the political support from key members of the Democratic Party, something that can weight more than her good position in the surveys and the millions of dollars she has raised.
Weakness: The candidate might be ahead, but she has not had a smooth campaign. Clinton has had to deal with controversy over international donations to her charitable foundation The Clinton Foundation and the personal server she used to send and receive e-mails outside the government system when she was Secretary of State.
Besides having a mass amount of followers, those who have followed her political career remembered that she has changed her stance in multiple issues throughout the years, doubting her credibility.
