Bill Clinton, former US President, said, "In 2008 I will celebrate my fortieth year as a voter. And in those forty years, tumultuous, fascinating years for America, she is by a long stretch the best qualified, non-incumbent I have ever had a chance to vote for president in my entire life."

During her speech, Hillary Clinton condemned President George W. Bush's decision to spare former White House aide, Lewis Libby from prison. And said it was evident that the Bush administration had "elevated cronyism over the rule of law."

Hillary Clinton said, "And when I'm President, we're going to get back to cherishing the constitution, upholding the rule of law, and putting forth the best values of America for the entire world to see again."

While the New York senator has led the Democratic presidential field in national opinion polls, she trails rival John Edwards in the Iowa polls.
