Hillary Clinton formally enters presidential race─── 06:55 Mon, 13 Apr 2015
Washington - Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has formally entered the 2016 race for the White House in a bid to become the first woman US president.
She launched her campaign website yesterday, telling Americans she wanted to be their "champion".
Clinton ran for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008 but lost to Barack Obama. The overwhelming Democratic favourite, she had been expected to declare her candidacy for months.
Clinton's campaign team say they will spend the next few weeks building up grassroots support in the early Democratic primary states.
She is expected to hold her first rally, officially kicking off her campaign, in mid-May.
