How Hillary Clinton defined her historic moment
By Stephen Collinson and Maeve Reston, CNN
Philadelphia (CNN)As Hillary Clinton playfully batted away an avalanche of balloons Thursday night, she appeared proud, happy and reconciled to her historic moment.
She had accepted the Democratic nomination with “humility, determination and boundless confidence in America’s promise,” taking her place as the first woman to lead a major presidential ticket on a night pulsating with emotion.
“When there are no ceilings,” she declared, “the sky’s the limit.”
Her speech lacked the poetic sweep of the President Barack Obama’s address Wednesday, but it was in keeping with someone who presents herself as a practical, dogged, policy-oriented striver who gets knocked down and then gets straight back up.
The choice she defined for the nation in 2016 is stark: a “moment of reckoning.”
The former first lady, senator and secretary of state set her sights on the White House and blasted Republican nominee Donald Trump, portraying him as a small man who got rich by stifling workers, who peddles fear and who lacks the temperament to be commander-in-chief.
She quickly reached out to disappointed Bernie Sanders voters at the end of a convention dedicated to healing the deep rift from their contentious primary race. With the Vermont senator watching from the arena, Clinton told his supporters: “I’ve heard you. Your cause is our cause.”
President Barack Obama congratulated Clinton at the conclusion of her speech.
“Great speech,” he tweeted. “She’s tested. She’s ready. She never quits. That’s why Hillary should be our next @POTUS. (She’ll get the Twitter handle, too)”
In the audience, Clinton supporters were moved to tears, including 16-year-old Victoria Sanchez.
“This is more than I ever could have imagined,” she said. “I know that I have just lived history and I can follow in her footsteps. This changes my entire life.”

Hillary of Democrat Party nominee says; Together we are stronger.
Hillary is a Liberal Christian who embrace and accept all kind of beliefs, races and sexual orientation. (LGBT).
HUMAN RIGHT AND WOMEN’S RIGHT ARE THE CORE OF ISLAMIC LAW ( GOD’S LAW), THOSE WHO DOES NOT OBEY HUMAN RIGHT, HE REJECTS ALLAH’S LAW.
Liberal (Muslim, Christian and Jews) obey Human Right, women’s right and LGBT’s right; but extremist ( Muslim,Jews and Christian ) reject Human Right, reject Women’s right and reject LGBT’s right. So who is right and who is wrong side of Allah”s laws? think about it?!
My question to Muslim Ahmadiyyah; Do Ahmadiyyah really protect the right of LGBT?
Election will surely decide.
