Hillary Clinton delivered a victory speech after the New York primary that at times soared as if it were presidential, but also contrasted her vision with the country with the ugly appeals of Donald Trump.

Video of Clinton victory speech:

Clinton told her supporters that they have proved that there is no place like home and that her campaign has now won in every region of the country, but the New York win was personal.

Former Sec. of State Clinton reached out to the supporters of Sen. Sanders by saying, “To all the people who supported Senator Sanders, I believe there is much more that unites us than divides us.”

Clinton said that the race for the Democratic nomination is in the homestretch and victory is in sight. Clinton spoke to her supporters and said, “Because of you, this is the only campaign, Democratic or Republican, to have won more than ten million votes.”

Hillary Clinton said that her campaign is about setting real progressive goals that are backed by real plans. Clinton called for Americans to put back to work rebuilding America’s crumbling infrastructure including the water system like the one in Flint, Michigan. Clinton called for America to combat climate change, and take on the challenge of system racism.

Clinton drilled Trump and Cruz, “Donald Trump and Ted Cruz are pushing a vision for America that is divisive and frankly dangerous. Returning to trickle down economics. Opposing any increase in the minimum wage. Restricting a woman’s right to make her own health care decision. Promising to round up millions of immigrants. Threatening to ban all Muslims from entering the country. Planning to treat all American Muslims like criminals. These things go against everything America stands for, and we have a very different vision. It’s about lifting each other up, not tearing each other down. So instead of building walls, we’re going to break down barriers.”

Clinton sounded like the Democratic nominee, but even bigger, she sounded like a president. The Democratic frontrunner took apart Donald Trump’s hateful rhetoric and offered a powerful positive vision of what the United States of America can be.

If the 2016 general election becomes a battle of contrasting visions, Hillary Clinton offering voters a view of the light to offset the dark negativity of Donald Trump.
