Hillary Rodham Clinton (AP)

Hillary Clinton wants to make college more affordable, opposes repeal of the Affordable Care Act and supports extension of the children’s health insurance program.
Missed her comments on those issues? She shared them all via Twitter.
Since the beginning of the year, Clinton has selectively weighed in on political debates in 140 characters or<span style="color: Red;">*</span>less<span style="color: Red;">*</span>and sometimes to great effect. Her first comment about the controversy over her use of a private email account while secretary of State came via Twitter, and she generated news with tweets about vaccines.
But when Clinton formally jumps into the presidential race Sunday, the public will want to hear from her directly on where she stands on issues. After<span style="color: Red;">*</span>an expected announcement via social media, Clinton is likely<span style="color: Red;">*</span>to head to Iowa, where she’ll share the rationale for her campaign and open herself up to questions from the reporters who trail her.
“Secretary Clinton has to focus on the things she can control,” said Nathan Gonzales, editor of the non-partisan Rothenberg & Gonzales Political Report. “She can control her own message. What vision is she providing for the country?”
Republicans are waiting.
“They’re playing it safe because they want a coronation, not a competition,” said Allison Moore, a spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee. “If Hillary Clinton’s team were confident in her candidacy, then they would not want to limit public and media access to her.”

Like IN law, AR bill goes beyond protecting religion, would permit unfair discrimination against #LGBT Americans. I urge Governor to veto.

[h=5]Don’t repeal the Affordable Care Act[/h]
#ACA@5: 16m covered. Young ppl. Preexisting conditions. Women get better coverage. Repeal those things? Embrace them! pic.twitter.com/OI1m2VxD4W

Repeal of the ACA would let insurers write their own rules again, and wipe out coverage for 16 million Americans.

Budgets reflect our priorities. They should help families get ahead, educate our kids, and spark small business growth.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) March 18, 2015

Our nation's future – jobs & economic growth – depends on investments made today. The GOP budget fails Americans on these principles.
— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) March 18, 2015

Making college more affordable is an investment in our kids and economic growth. Cuts to Pell Grants hold our kids back.
