bonnie Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Hillary WILL run in 2016, claims wealthy Greek donor (who says Bill told him) By Leslie Larson PUBLISHED: 16:24 EST, 13 February 2013 | UPDATED: 17:19 EST, 13 February 2013 A wealthy Democratic donor is fanning the flames of speculation that Hillary Clinton is indeed running for president. Sacramento developer Angelo Tsakopoulos says Bill Clinton has confirmed the presumed plan that the former Secretary of State will make a bid for the White House again. The millionaire told the Greek Reporter that Clinton's husband revealed his wife's political ambition, as the power couple gear up for a 2016 race. Hillary 2016? Political plan: The former Secretary of State has launched a new website, fueling rumors a bid for the presidency was on her 'To Do' list 'Hillary will be our next President and she will be a great one,' Mr Tsakopoulos told the Greek Reporter at a private gala event in California over the weekend. 'I talk to her husband, and he confirmed it. She will run,' he added. Reps from the Clinton camp have publicly addressed his statements. The Greek native is a longtime Democratic donor who played a key role in fundraising for Team Clinton in her first presidential run. His daughter, Eleni Tsakopoulos-Kounalakis, was appointed the United States Ambassador to Hungary by President Obama. She was sworn in by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on January 7, 2010, with her father holding the Bible for the ceremony. She is expected to serve as an adviser for Clinton's reported bid for the presidency. Hillary Clinton's political plans are considered the worst kept secret in Washington. Though the 65-year-old, who left the State Department in January, claims she has no set agenda for the future it has been widely thought that she still has her eye on the Oval Office. Just days after she handed over the reins of the State Department to former Mass. Sen. John Kerry, she launched a new website with the mysterious web address www.hillaryclintonoffice.com. The website features a glamorous photo of the diplomat but provides no information on its purpose, other than the option for a visitor to enter their contact information. She has long stated that she would be taking time to rest and not focusing on her long-term plans. In December, she suffered a concussion and was hospitalized briefly for a blood clot near her brain. Angelo Tsakopoulos Kyriakos Tsakopoulo She previously sought the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008, against then Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) She and her husband fought tooth and nail against the rising Democratic star, who ultimately proved victorious. Though the indefatigable political pair had to lick their wounds when Mr Obama secured the Democratic presidential nomination, they eventually got in line to support the party and then Sen. Clinton (D-NY) was appointed Secretary of State under the 44th president. But she has maintained a powerful circle of supporters who have continued to express their hope that she would run again.
