Clinton wants to make history as first female US president
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is to announce she is running for president on Sunday.
If her wishes come true, she would make history as the first ever female president of the Unites States of America.
Mrs Clinton is expected to make the announcement on social media.
The 67-year-old will then travel to Iowa and New Hampshire, two early primary contests in the 2016 race. The former first lady previously ran for president in 2008 and is already considered a strong contender for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Mrs Clinton is expected to release a video outlining her campaign themes but will put off a large, formal speech. Already, she has made a trip to Iowa, where she came in third in the state’s 2008 nominating contest
