L'hebdomadaire New York publie dans son numéro courant la première interview accordée par Hillary Clinton depuis son départ du département d'État américaine. Je mets au défi quiconque de la lire sans conclure que l'ex-secrétaire d'État briguera la présidence en 2016.
En tout cas, certains de ses proches n'en doutent pas, comme l'atteste ce passage du reportage du journaliste Joe Hagan que je cite dans le texte :
Some of her close confidants, including many people with whom her own staff put me in touch, are far less circumspect than she is. "She's running, but she doesn't know it yet," one such person put it to me. "It's just like a force of history. It's inexorable, it's gravitational. I think she actually believes she has more say in it than she actually does."
And a longtime friend concurs. "She's doing a very Clintonian thing. In her mind, she's running for it, and she's also convinced herself she hasn't made up her mind. She's going to run for president. It's a foregone conclusion."
