Hillary Clinton has spoken at the Democratic National Convention of her hope that Kamala Harris can finally break the “highest, hardest glass ceiling” in America by becoming the first female president
Ms Clinton said she had broken a glass ceiling of her own by becoming the first woman to win a major party nomination for president.
“When a barrier falls for one of us, it clears the way for all of us,” she said, echoing her convention speech from eight years before.
But while her bid for the presidency in 2016 was historic, it ultimately ended in defeat when she lost the election to Donald Trump.
Now, as the Democratic Party takes its next shot at putting the first woman in the White House, she told a crowd of thousands in Chicago the time had come to pass the torch.
“Together, we’ve put a lot of cracks in the highest, hardest glass ceiling,” Mrs Clinton said. “On the other side of that glass ceiling is Kamala Harris raising her hand and taking the oath of office as our 47th President of the United States.”
