I'm Running for President- May 4, 2015
May 4, 2015
CLIP FROM HILLARY CLINTON ANNOUNCEMENT VIDEO: I'm getting ready to do something, too. I'm running for president. FIORINA: Our founders never intended us to have a professional political class. They believed that citizens and leaders needed to step forward. We know the only way to reimagine our government is to reimagine who is leading it. I’m Carly Fiorina, and I'm running for president. If you're tired of the sound bites, the vitriol, the pettiness, the egos, the corruption, if you believe it's time to declare the end of identity politics, […]

My Announcement - Sept. 13, 2011
September 13, 2011
I'm going to do this. I'm going to run for the United States Senate. And the reason is straightforward: middle class families have been chipped at, hacked at, squeezed and hammered for a generation now, and I don't think Washington gets it. Washington is rigged for big corporations that hire armies of lobbyists. A big company, like GE, pays nothing in taxes, and we're asking college students to take on even more debt to get an education? We're telling seniors they may need to learn to live on less? It […]

January 25, 1972
I stand before you today, as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for the Presidency of the United States of America. I am not the candidate of Black America, although I am Black and proud. I am not the candidate of the women's movement of this country, although I am a woman, and I'm equally proud of that. I am not the candidate of any political bosses or fat cats or special interests. I stand here now, without endorsements from many big-name politicians or celebrities or any other kind of […]

June 27, 2011
Good morning, it is so great to be here in Iowa this morning and even better to be here in Waterloo where I was born.

I stand here in the midst of many friends and many family members to announce formally my candidacy for president of the United States. I do so because I am […]

Candidacy Announcement for 2014 U.S. Senate Race - Nov. 30, 2012
November 30, 2012
Good morning, everybody. It's a bright day, yes. As Little Shelley said, "Today is my 29th birthday plus 30." Today is my 59th birthday. I was actually born on Thanksgiving. My brother and sister are here, probably ruined by brother's day because he got a little sister. When I was born on Thanksgiving Day, my parents always said that they were going to name me Thankful Evermore. They didn't, but I am thankful evermore today for all of you, for many of the faces I see in the crowd today […]
