Hillary Clinton strongly backs public option, wins praise from Bernie Sanders VOX

Hillary Clinton released this morning revisions in her health plan, pledges that aren't new to her platform. Hillary ran on the public option for healthcare in 2008 and she has long supported community health care centers, as VOX reminds reads.

What is a key point is that with the nomination in hand, Hillary is emphasizing progressive ideas that are important to most Democrats, not only Sanders supporters.

Besides a pledge to include a public option health insurance plan for Americans in every state, and doubling funding for primary care services in community health center, Clinton pledged to let Americans as young as 55 to opt into Medicare.

" Indeed, in a press call after Clinton’s announcement, Sanders described her health care proposal as an "extremely important initiative" and "an important step forward" — and emphasized that it was made "after discussions with our campaign."'

Bernie Sanders Allies Lose a Fight Over Democrats' Stance on Trade New York Times

The Democratic Platform Committee refused to adopt the Sanders language promising to never bring TPP to a vote. As we've written all week, such language would be a rebuke to President Obama and a largely symbolic move since the platform committee doesn't dictate the Congressional legislative agenda.

The Sanders team sent boos into the room, arguing that if Clinton really opposed TPP, she should sign on to the Sanders amendment.

One Down, Will We Have Another? Ladies Set to Lead in Britain

Angela Eagle to announce Labour party leadership bid on Monday The Guardian

We already know that Britain will have a woman Prime Minister, now Home Secretary Theresa May set to replace David Cameron.

Now Jeremy Corbyn has a challenger for head of the Labour opposition party. He will face a challenge by fellow MP Angela Eagle after talks between the party’s parliamentary wing and its labour union backers collapsed today, Saturday.

Eagle, who served as shadow business secretary until resigning her position in late June in protest to Corbyn's lukewarm efforts to remain in the EU, said she would announce her bid on Monday, with a pledge to “explain my vision for the country and the difference a strong Labour Party can make.”

With German Chancellor Angela Merkel's popularity dropping as a result of the refugee crisis, it's unclear if she can win another term in 2017. As a result of Brexit, however, Europe may need Merkel more than ever. Previously, Merkel had said that she would not run again, but a Google search says she probably will.

With Hillary as president of the US, women leaders would have a very strong presence in global politics.
