Hillary Clinton takes over Assembly Hall

Hillary Clinton painted herself as a candidate who can move America forward and change the nation Friday afternoon during a speech at Assembly Hall.\nThe Democratic presidential candidate told a crowd of some 5,000 students and community members that not only can she inspire change, but she also has the knowledge and experience to get there.\n“It is not enough to say yes we can,” Clinton said, referring to her opponent Barack Obama’s slogan. “We have to say how we will.”\nClinton also acknowledged that many students support Obama because he is inspirational and has become popular, but she urged students to look past Obama’s celebrity.\n“I want you to approach this as a hiring decision,” she said. “Or like picking a surgeon for a very good friend. You want the most experience you can get.”\nThe New York Senator described herself as a policy “wonk” and outlined her plans to turn the economy around and make college more affordable.\n For more, check out Monday’s Indiana Daily Student.
