Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential run focus of Marin photographer

Using her camera to hide her tears, Kinney, standing amid a crowd of devastated Clinton supporters and staffers, photographed her 2016 concession speech at the New Yorker Hotel in Manhattan — an emotional end to the Larkspur resident’s 20-month stint working as Clinton’s campaign photographer.

Her pictures were terrible.

“I just was spent,” Kinney recalls. “That’s when the emotion took over and I could have done a better job. I think she’s great. She would have been a great president.”

It took Kinney almost a year after the election to look at the 432,000 photographs she’d taken on the campaign trail, everything from Clinton filming her announcement to run for president at her home in Chappaqua, New York, to her backstage antics with Clinton impersonator Kate McKinnon at “Saturday Night Live,” to the intimate, behind-the-scenes moments with her family.

but my comment was in regard to the memorabilia (books, pictures, documentaries, etc) of the campaign trail itself.

When you lose (or if it's stolen, a la 2000 and 2016) the campaign is something you want to forget, compared to when you win (Bill Clinton, Obama) the campaigns (and the players within) become mythologized, something you look back fondly on.

She's been spot on in all of her tRump predictions, from him being Putin's puppet, to making taxpayers pay for his vanity border wall. He divides. She brings people together. He's weak on foreign policy. She's strong on foreign policy. tRump's about himself and enriching himself and she's about elevating every American, republican, independent or patriotic democrat and won't sleep until she's exhausted her best effort.

No question. Hillary Clinton would have made America great. Instead we are divided, weak and have turned on our allies.
