PHILADELPHIA, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 29th july,2016) - Hillary Clinton on Thursday accepted the Democratic Party's White House nomination, casting herself as a tireless champion of the people and rejecting Donald Trump's dark picture of America. Becoming the first woman to win the nomination of a major political party, Clinton promised to be a president for "all Americans," whether they voted for her or not. Making a bold play for the political center ground in an election year that has seen the hard right and the hard left become louder and more shrill, Clinton vowed to "be a president for Democrats, Republicans, and Independents.
" "For the struggling, the striving and the successful.
For those who vote for me and those who don't. For all Americans." Much of Clinton's address to Democrats gathered in Philadelphia for their party's convention was focused on perhaps her biggest weakness come November -- a tough public image forged over decades of withering political trench warfare. "Some people just don't know what to make of me," she said with a frankness that is unusual in American politics. "The truth is, through all of these years of public service, the service part has always come easier to me than the public part."
