Hillary Clinton endorses Kamala Harris to break the ultimate glass ceiling by becoming the first female U.S. President, reflecting on her own groundbreaking 2016 campaign.
In a powerful speech at the Democratic National Convention, Hillary Clinton voiced her hope that Kamala Harris would achieve what she could not—becoming the first female President of the United States. Reflecting on her historic 2016 presidential run, where she became the first woman to win a major party nomination, Clinton emphasized that the time has come for Harris to break the ultimate glass ceiling.
She described Harris as the leader who could carry forward the torch of gender equality, urging the nation to support her in making history. Clinton's endorsement underscores the importance of continued progress in the fight for women's representation at the highest levels of American government.
As she addressed thousands in Chicago, Clinton poignantly remarked, “Together, we’ve put a lot of cracks in the highest, hardest glass ceiling. 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.” The message was clear: the fight for gender equality in politics is far from over, but Harris represents a new hope for shattering the barriers that remain.
