This Girl is on Fire: Carly Fiorina, the 2016 Dark Horse from Virginia

Last week, the New Hampshire Republican Party held a presidential candidate “Cattle Call,” asking the candidates to come speak to the most committed activists in the First in The Nation Primary state. As former Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina stepped out on stage, the first few bars of “This Girl is on Fire” by Alicia Keys blasted through the speakers. The song choice matches exactly to Ms. Fiorina, because she is definitely on fire.

The Weekly Standard had a write-up about the former CEO in their newest issue. 

 Fiorina says she’d run on her performance at HP, not away from it. “We doubled the company from $45 billion to $90 billion,” she told Fox News’s Bret Baier recently. “We went from market laggard in every product category to market leader in every product category and in every market in which we competed.”

And Carly is not just talking about her track record, watch her in speeches. Carly is warm, engaging, and willing to talk about tough issues. She understands foreign policy on a much more advanced level than her opponents. Fiorina talks about foreign policy by not just talking about diplomats and treaties, but on International Trade and Finance. She understands complex issues that plague our country.

It looks to me like Ms. Fiorina is also excited to debate Clinton on Feminism:

“What Hillary Clinton desperately wants to talk about is that she gets to be the first woman president. What she desperately wants to talk about is there’s a war on women. What she desperately wants to talk about is playing the gender card,” Fiorina continues. “If I am standing next to her on a general election debate stage, she can’t talk about any of those things. You know what she’s going to have to talk about? Her track record.”

“Like Hillary Clinton, I too have traveled hundreds and thousands of miles around the globe, but unlike her, I’ve actually accomplished something,” Fiorina said, in what’s become a staple applause line. “You see, Mrs. Clinton, flying is not an accomplishment. It is an activity.”

A Republican candidate willing to engage Hillary on the gender card. A Republican who can be aggressive, someone who will stand up to the Clinton machine. Someone who has dealt with world leaders, and lead a company to financial world-wide success. A pro-life Republican who is proud of her views. Wow. I’m impressed.

Carly will announce her Presidential run on May 5th and will also roll out a new book that week. The book will contain parts of her life story, which sounds exactly like what the American Dream should be. She went from a Secretary to the CEO of one of the largest technology company in the world, and did so on her own merits and her own terms. She quit law school to go to MIT. She talks about her faith, finding God after her daughter’s death from addiction and her fight with cancer. Carly’s story is the definition of the American Dream. Shes got an amazing history, and with her faith in God and her own merits, she succeeded on her own.

Ms. Fiorina has her work cut out for her. She is running in the largest field the Republican Party has ever seen. She is far behind in the polls, but is an aggressive campaigner.

I hope that we see more of Ms. Fiorina in the months to come. She is the Dark Horse candidate to watch in 2016.
