Hillary Clinton is a former First Lady, a former senator, and a former secretary of state. She is the Democratic nominee for president.
But on Thursday, Clinton also gave herself another title: "a mom who works."
"I loved what I did," Clinton wrote about her job as a lawyer in an op-ed. "And it was important to me to contribute to my family's finances, especially now that we were having a baby."
Clinton recounted learning that the law firm where she worked before her daughter Chelsea was born didn't have a maternity leave policy. Clinton "decided to take matters into [her] own hands" and, before her due date, was granted four months of paid leave.
[Snip]
"Bill and I have been blessed," Clinton said the day after the debate, at a rally in Raleigh. "We didn't come from millionaire families. My husbands father, his biological father, died before he was born. His mother went to nursing school in order to support him. They struggled. They worked hard."

Earned it the hard way ... is now living the American dream!
Moms; make $250,000 in your spare time giving a 20 minute speech!
Hillary; oven mitt gone bad
Now just why are ordinary people so upset with the people running the government?
As a member of the middle-class myself, I don’t know anyone in my “class” who would have helped himself or herself to the White House china, the White House silver, the White House paintings, the White House furniture.
That’s someone from the LOW CLASS.
She’s pandering to the wrong crowd!
“Moms who work” — that’s another category where you don’t find people who STEAL public property from the White House on their way out as First Lady....White House silver, china, paintings, and furnishings!! Not all of which were returned; some even made it to the market where she realized a profit.
Ugh! If I have to hear about her father’s stupid drapery business one more time!!!!
The Tower of Babel lives!!
Oh no back to baking cookies again
The talking points ‘meme’ of the next couple of days is a round of cautions from NPR, CBS, NBC, ABC, NYT, LAT et al that “Trump’s attacks (if you can call them that) are RISKY.”
You’re gonna hear that word over and over and over again.
May or may not be true.
Liberal statistical guru Nate Silver says Hillary now has a 64.3% chance of winning the election.
Hillary may be a terrible candidate but the odds apparently favor her.
Silver wouldn’t lie about it, would he? We’ll see.
LOL!!!
Beautiful.
And I absolutely want to puke every time I see the Hillary ad that says she has fought for children her whole life. I want Trump to do an ad using her laughing about the time she destroyed a 12 year old rape victim, by painting the victim as the aggressor, in order to get her guilty client off. And no, I don’t buy into the ‘she was providing the best defense for her client’ excuse. She didn’t have to lie and DESTROY a 12 year old girl to give a ‘best defense’. This woman is evil incarnate and must be exposed to the masses before the election.
During the debate her story about her dad running the silkscreen with the squeegee in the factory was so inspirational. YAWN!
Don’t forget they stole the Ws on computer keyboards.
I haven't seen any crowds of people with pitchforks at the capitals lately, have you? Apparently they are not all that upset.
"And seeing that Web didn't want to pay child support, and all."
