Thank you all so much”. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton took the stage in front on an enthusiastic crowd who waited 2 hours at Bear Down Gym on the University of Arizona campus. Thousands waited in line including one woman, Corina Ontiveros Aguirre who wanted to hear the speech before making up her mind next Tuesday. She says “I think so; I really do think I'll have a better feeling after hearing it from her directly”. The New York Senator spoke for 40 minutes, making a few positive comments about her rival, Illinois Senator Barack Obama. “So whichever one of us is nominated, we will change history...right”? a reference to America’s progress. But she wanted to make one thing clear to undecided voters, “Who is best ready? Who is tested and proven and able to beat whomever the republicans send our way? She pounded away at the economy, promising a better America for the hardworking middle class, “It is not rich people who made America great. It is hardworking people who got up every day, did the jobs, created the small businesses”. She also pledged to make a college education affordable again, and took the time to help those in the crowd suffering from the heat in the gym, “Let's get some water in there, somebody might have passed out”. Her call for a universal health care plan struck a cord with many. “They cannot deny you because of a preexisting condition”. In the end, her speech changed the mind of at least one undecided voter. Corina Ontiveros Aguirre says “Based on what she said, primarily on universal health care, secondly on education, and thirdly on the economy, I will definitely vote for Senator Clinton” “And whether some of the other undecided voters out there change their minds is something we'll have to find out on Tuesday.
