First On CNN
Hillary Clinton has mounted two failed bids for President so far, in 2008 and in 2016. But now, sources close to her say she is in the process of forming an exploratory committee for a third presidential bid in 2024. While the current understanding is that she would only run if President Biden does not, these sources cautioned that the scope of a third run is still fluid and would not rule out her mounting a progressive primary challenge to Biden.
In a statement to CNN, an Aide stated that Clinton planned to turn away attacks on the fact that she would be 77 on Election Day 2024 by pointing to the fact that Biden will be 81 on Election Day 2024, and 82 on Inauguration Day 2025, and that likely GOP nominee Donald Trump will be 78 on Election Day 2024. Clinton plans to turn away attacks on the fact that the country has already rejected her twice by pointing to the supposed sexism of both electorates and a series of unfair attacks that she will be better prepared to counteract in 2024. She also is going to reportedly put much of the blame on a number of her 2016 campaign staffers, many of which she plans to replace for the 2024 campaign.
(...)
More information, including a formal FEC filing for the exploratory committee and how Americans can contribute to it, is expected to be available on Monday, April 4.

Ughhh. Not a good idea. She is way too old and polarizing.
