Passover Wishes From Clinton

Statement By Hillary Clinton On Passover As Jewish families across the world prepare to gather together around the Seder table, I am delighted to offer greetings and good wishes for a joyous Passover.

I have always been inspired by the enduring words of the Haggadah: "In every generation, each of us must see ourselves as if we personally came out of Egypt." It's through remembering the past that we become strong and effective advocates for all who suffer the indignity and pain of servitude and injustice. I am deeply moved by this timeless cry to stand up to oppression, tyranny, and discrimination -- wherever they are found.

As you prepare your homes and your hearts for this Passover season, please know that Bill, Chelsea, and I join you in celebrating freedom and family.

Hag Sameach -- May this be a season of joy for all!

Thank you Hillary, Bill and Chelsea Clinton. Many in the Jewish community are very fond of you and your family and we appreciate your well wishes for a joyous passover. Your words of rememberance hold true for all who know the meaning of passover. I personally hope that you win in Pennsylvania this week and will be praying that you passover this trial and move on to the promise for President. Sincerely, ShoshannaSue

Dear Mrs. Clinton,

I came to this site looking for Passover images, and found your message. Thank you for wishing all of us a happy Passover. God is Great!
