Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton announced on Tuesday that New Jersey Sen. Robert Menendez will serve as co-chair of her presidential campaign, providing her with a strong link to the Hispanic community.
In a joint news conference, the New York senator said she appreciates Menendez' support and called him "the embodiment of the American dream."
"The support of Latino Americans is especially important to me because these days require us to bring our country together," Clinton said.
Menendez, a Cuban-American and former member of the House leadership, was appointed in December 2005 to fill the Senate seat of Gov.-elect Jon Corzine. Menendez was re-elected in 2006, defeating Thomas Kean, Jr., the son of the former Republican governor, in a hard-fought and expensive race.
She needs more help then this guy. :)
