She essentially has the Granite State all to herself this week. When Carly Fiorina arrives in New Hampshire on Tuesday, she’ll be staying the entire week - appearing at 11 events in six counties, ranging from cozy living room chats to major business roundtables, sessions with local Republican officials and one national security summit. But this is her style. She only left Iowa 48 hours ago after finishing up a 15-city tour through the state, and is becoming a force to be reckoned with.
“Hillary Clinton must not be president of the United States - but not because she’s a woman. Hillary Clinton cannot be president of the United States because she is not trustworthy. And while she has held many titles, she hasn’t accomplished very much,” Ms. Fiorina told an audience at an Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition voter summit on Saturday.
Her crowded schedule makes sense, though. Ms. Fiorina is only days away from revealing her own presidential intentions, to be made public through an online announcement on Monday, followed by a press call. The following morning her new book “Rising to the Challenges: My Leadership Journey” will be published by Sentinel Books.
“There are all kinds of reasons why people fail to fulfill their potential,” she writes in the forthcoming memoir. “Perhaps they lack opportunity, perhaps they lack support, perhaps they lack tools or training or education. But everyone has potential. This I know. Our Founders knew it too. They had the radical insight that the right to fulfill your potential - to use your God-given gifts - is a right that comes from God and cannot be taken away by government.”
