Hillary Clinton for President Ads Air in New Orleans, Will Run in Other Cities

While voters are being inundated with television spots for candidates in this year's midterm elections, viewers in some markets will also see an ad for the 2012 presidential vote with the slogan, "Where there's a Hill there's a way."

The "Hillary Clinton for President" commercial began its run in New Orleans this week and the man behind the campaign, William DeJean, said he will also pay for it to air in Washington, New York, Los Angeles and possibly Houston, CNN reported.

DeJean, a Chicago dentist, said he paid $5,000 to make the ad because he doesn't think "this country is headed in the right direction," and he told CNN he believes Hillary Clinton is the one who can set things straight.

The ad calls Clinton "one of the most admired women in our nation's history" who has "more experience working in and with the White House than most living presidents."

"Let's make sure the president we should have elected in 2008 will be on the ballot in 2012," the ad says. "Hillary 2012: Hillary Clinton for President. Start now. Where there's a Hill there's a way."

Clinton, the secretary of state, has repeatedly said she has no intention of running for president again. She lost the Democratic primary in 2008 to her current boss, Barack Obama.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.

Hillary seemed to have had campaign funding problems for 2008. I wonder if she'll do any better for 2012?

No mistake. Again, AOL shows its true alliances. Nearly every comment is against our President and the Democrats; even if the article topic is Clinton. What the problem is: it isn't that our country isn't ready for a woman president, it's that our country will not accept having a black president, and the Republican party has whiplashed Obama at every turn. Even the Democratic party went into 2008 race partially biased against Obama. How could he withstand all this critizsm? He has and will continue to stand tall, answer our countie's very difficult needs; even if more than 70% of our country have torn this gentle and great man apart. In the very near future, we will be faced with a Republican takover. What will happen then is this. 1. The well will run dry. You will hear the question: " Now what do we do"? I know how radical more than 50% of the GOP voices have become. They take their guidence from people like Palin! Glenn Beck, Hennity, and Gretta, Limbaugh. I live in Texas, and while driving around, I have the radio on am news. Every radio show has a commentator with a Republican agenda. The horrible comments about our President and the backlash of comments are crazy. Most of the Engles and Mc Cains and Palins are either so right wing or so radical with the tea party haters on the rise. What this does is give a platform to those not qualified or do not have the experience to govern or be in office. It's a terrible shame that color these days causes so much hate still.

I can't believe anyone would entertain a Hillary Clinton presidency. Hillary Clinton is a follower of Saul Alinsky; look him up. These people never examine the results of a Socialistic/Communist country except that they think they can do it better. UK and Canada's health care has been a failure. Still they pushed this ObamaCare through while hearing the shouts of the American people. This November of 2010, the American people will get their attention through the voting booth.

When the people of the United States realize the globalists are one of our biggest problems in this country, they will do all they can to see these people never serve in government in any capacity. If they are a member of the Trilateral Commission, the Bilderberg Group or the Council on Foreign Relations, then they're globalists, working for their New World Order and global control of the planet. All one has to do is read the past quotes of some of the members, and you'll see what I'm talking about. Americans should also start checking out the quotes of Obama's White House circle of friends as well. Meanwhile the federal Reserve continues to print money out of thin air, making the American people slaves to the debt the government continues to create.

Hillary for 2012? You got to be kidding... 1) When she took the job of Secretary of State under Obama, it made her essentially inelligible for 2012 candiate - she became a very ineffective Secretary almost approaching to the level of Madame Albright who was the worst Secretary in modern US history.... 2) Obama will make it sure that Hillary will be invisible during the second half of his presidency, to eliminate any challenger from Dem party.... During 2008 campaign, Hillary kept saying she and Obama were so different in the political views of running America, and now she is essentially reduced to a messenger girl of Obama.... I still wonder why she took the job, even she didn't have any ambition for 2012..... She'll never make it anyway.

This is what you people are calling "Turning Arizona in for Human Rights Violations" to the UN: A recent Arizona law, S.B. 1070, has generated significant attention and debate at home and around the world. The issue is being addressed in a court action that argues that the federal government has the authority to set and enforce immigration law. That action is ongoing; parts of the law are currently enjoined. That's it. That's what was in the report to the UN. Learn to read, people. Learn to make decisions based on that reading. Stop letting yourself be told what your opinion is.

Didn't Hillary just take Arizona to the U.N.? What kind of politician does that kind of thing? There's a lot of injustices in the world that deserve that more than Arizona. Their law (Arizona) is somewhat a carbon copy of the federal law on immigration. I've about had it with the Democratic Party. I'll be shopping around for a new party.

everyone forgets that Hillary whipped Obama's but in the primaries, if it were not for the caucus's she would have been the nominee, The media helped this crew get elected, it was a madison ave campaign, he is a great orator, with no substance, we got what we were promised-an inexperienced chicago thug, a man who has never ran anything in his life, never had to meet a payroll, has always relied on the govt for his well being, and want's all of else to do the same--as for a comment on here that the GOP has stalled over 400 bills in congress, that is so inacurate, you just can't make things up, oh yes you can, obama administration does it all the time "we have saved or created 2 million jobs" whaaat???? can not prove or disprove-these guy's are a joke-with a major majority in both houses,just look and see what they had to do to pass the health care bill!!--biggest mistake ever made in this country !!!!!!!! oh Hillary won't help!! We need a leader that can surround him/herself with the best people in the country to unify and work on substance to get thinks right, not this group of academia, and career govt people that have no clue!!!!!!!!!

I was one that wanted Hillary for President of the United States. Hell, I worked for her campaign. I chose my second option and I voted for Obama. He does care about the American people. Can he create jobs????? Companies have to create jobs. This large unemployment rate is the result of years and years of American companies shipping our jobs overseas. Large companies are still shipping their production overseas. This has to stop. Can the president change this? I don't know. Can someone please answer my question?

I have thought alot about this too. Unless we internalise the problem and vote with our dollars we cannot expect politicians to save us. You could get a one platform candidate...end Nafta now..but again, if people continue to buy made in china at walmart it won't mean anything
