Let's be honest: we've all talked to people who wonder why Hillary is really in this race.If I could show each and every one of those people just one thing, it would probably be this brand new video.
It's about how, over the course of the campaign, she's met and become friends with an incredible woman named Janelle, who recently battled -- and beat -- breast cancer.
I’ve traveled with Hillary every day of this campaign -- I'm there to make sure every event goes off without a hitch -- so I see this kind of thing happen all the time. She listens to people -- she gets to know them and makes a connection. And then, somehow, she finds the time to circle back, to follow up, to show a little love and kindness.
That’s exactly what happened with Janelle, and -- well, you just have to see the video for yourself.
The day they met, Hillary spent 30 minutes getting to know this woman and her two daughters. And ever since that chilly October afternoon, the two have stayed in touch -- in fact, Hillary even introduced her to her lifelong best friend, Betsy, who also survived cancer, and they're friends now, too. "Just to keep widening the circle of caring and love," Hillary told me.
I wish the whole world could see Hillary the way I do. That’s why I’m writing to you today -- because you can help make that possible just by watching and sharing this video of Janelle and Hillary’s friendship. It’s an incredible story about two brilliant, resilient women.
I hope you love this video as much as I do (and share it far and wide!)
Thanks so much,
