There are few figures in modern American politics who are more divisive than Hillary Clinton. (Though the guy who currently resides in the White House could certainly give her a run for her money in that department.)
Hailed as the leader this country needs by supporters and slammed as an opportunistic careerisy by detractors, Clinton is the saort of politician whose involvement in a national campaign would certainly result in an all-out blitzkrieg attack from the opposition.
So if you're a political junkie with a taste for mudslinging, this Sunday may offer something even more enthralling than the season 5 premiere of Game of Thrones, as sources say Clinton will officially announce her 2016 presidential bid.
Clinton's involvement in the race has been considered a foregone conclusion for quite some time, with celebrities and other high-profile supporters announcing their excitement for "Hillary 2016" just days after Barack Obama's reelection.
The former first lady, senator and secretary of state is expected to officially throw her hat into the ring with a video message on social media. (When Clinton joined Twitter in 2013, many took it as an early sign that she would seek the Democratic nomination.)
From there, insiders say she'll visit important early primary states like Iowa and New Hampshire.
Clinton is widely considered to be a lock for the Democratic nomination, and no viable contenders have emerged as of yet.
On the Republican side, Senator Rand Paul announced this week that he would seek his party's nomination.
Texas senator Ted Cruz became the first to announce his candidacy in late March, and former Florida governor Jeb Bush may throw his hat into the ring as early as this week.
