This is Seth Silver's.

Thank you for joining us for pant suit politics.

This is Sarah Stewart Holland.

And this is Beth Silver's.

Thank you for joining us for pant suit politics. We're so glad you're here today for a very special episode of Pantsuit Politics.

We are joined by former Secretary of State, Senator, and First Lady, Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Sarah, when I tell people about this strange thing that I do for a living,

often they will say,

pantsuit politics, is that like a Hillary Clinton tribute?

Yes.

And well the truth is,

Pantsuit politics is a name you came up with

for an entirely different concept than what we do today.

Since this feels like a full circle moment though, can you set the record straight is

pantsuit politics like a Hillary Clinton tribute?

Well, and that so much of how I move about in political spaces is a tribute to her, yes.

I mean, I learned a lot about how to be in the world

from working with her and watching her over the years and you can't separate the word

pantsuit from her at this point and you can't separate so much of our politics and conversations about politics from her and her

life in American civic culture over what, four or five decades at this point but what is a real gift is

when you get to spend time with her and realize the very real human being

behind all those myths and perceptions.
