Hilary Clinton is AWESOME!

It was just announced that Hillary Clinton took some time out of her busy schedule as Sec. of State to meet with the guy who started the "Texts From Hillary" site.  http://textsfromhillaryclinton.tumblr.com/
I will admit that I was a huge Hillary fan during the last election and was disappointed when she pulled out of the race.  I have always felt that she was misrepresented and unfairly treated by the media during her campaign.  It's nice to see that now she's on the other end of the media spectrum, being portrayed in a much happier comic light.  And to make it even better, she clearly has a sense of humor about it and likes the website!  This is why she rocks!
But seriously, this is a great way to show how much the way we see the world has changed, thanks to the internet.  We have youtube and tumblr and a lot of other sites where successes and blunders of public figures are torn apart non-stop.  I love to see when politicians take time to acknowledge the things that are going viral out there, especially when they are fun and relevant.  To be successful now, you have to acknowledge this about our society.  Ms. Clinton has shown that she has the balls and the brains to be a successful leader in this world no matter what side of the spectrum you're on.  And she has proven that she acknowledges how the rest of us function in this world.  Regardless of what youre political beliefs are, I think it's important to show at least a little bit of respect to her for remaining relevant and competent.  More politicians need to show that their in touch with the rest of us.  Because hasn't that been one of the biggest issues with the current Republican Presidential Candidates?
