Hillary Clinton Warns U.S. Must Lead Globally Or 'Pay A Big Price'

Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton asserts that the 2016 election will be a watershed moment for the United States.  "We're going to lead in the world or take a back seat and pay a big price for it," she told CBS' Charlie Rose Tuesday.  When asked why she wants to be president, Clinton said: "I'm not doing it to move back in, although it's a wonderful place." Clinton, who nabbed the support of one of the country’s largest labor unions last week, said that it's either the moment to get the economy working for everyone or the country will experience increasing inequality "in a way that we haven't seen since the 1920s."  "We're either going to figure out how to live together despite all of our differences, show respect for people, enforce human rights, civil rights, women's rights, gay rights, workers' rights, or we're going to really have the balance shift dramatically against the kind of democracy that I believe in, that I think works best for America," she added.
