Will Hillary Clinton become the first woman President of the USA

#hillaryclinton #donaldtrump #WhiteHouse #BernieSanders The battle for White House is hotting up and Hillary Clinton is believed to be the favorite of the Democratic party. She was ahead till recently but, the popularity of Vermont senator Bernie Sanders is on the rise and he has surged ahead of Hillary Clinton.
THis has been reported in ibnlive.com dated 22 January 2016.

Hillary Clinton, the former first lady, former New York senator and former secretary of state enjoys a worldwide following and had started as a Democratic favorite when she had announced her candidature last spring. She was holding a substantially commanding lead over her nearest Democratic rival Sanders in Iowa until December. At that time, as per the CNN/ORC poll, she led Sanders by 18 points.
However, as per the latest opinion poll carried out and released by the same agency, Sanders is now leading Clinton by eight points. This is her second presidential bid and, a defeat in Iowa could become a major setback for her campaign because this traditionally sets the pace and tone of the rest of the presidential season.
Of course, she can always bounce back by winning in other States. Nationally, she still has a 13-point lead over Sanders, the Senator from Vermont.
The Iowa Caucus is on February 1 and that would formally kick off the 2016 presidential elections. It will be followed by New Hampshire primary a week later and, candidates from both the Democratic and Republican parties have virtually stormed the two crucial states. They have fanned out to small villages and cities in their last-minute efforts to convince voters and garner support from them.
