Hillary Clinton has been much more than a dedicated public servant during her political career. And it was demonstrated in her concession speech on Wednesday, the day after the election. She was not only gracious at a time of disappointment, she asked her supporters to give Donald Trump a chance to lead. She also reminded her supporters that their dreams are still alive and should continue in the future.
Although Clinton did not reach the needed 270 electoral votes to win the Presidency, she did win the popular vote according to the latest released numbers. So she not only ended her Presidential campaign a winner, she ended it in style with a concession speech of civility without a hint of threats. The moral high ground was on Clinton's side in this election and the majority of the voters confirmed that with their vote.
Hillary's concession speech also confirmed she had the temperament that is needed to be President and Commander in Chief. She put America first, which is one reason she was a successful public servant. America lost the President of its people's choice on November 8, but Hillary Clinton stands tall as a true All American.
