Hillary Clinton promises her New Year's resolution will be to tell us whether she is going to run for president by January 1st
- Clinton made the comments during a speaking event in Mexico on Friday
- She recently criticized President Obama for 'failure' that lead to rise of ISIS
- Her book, Hard Choices, was published in June and was followed by a book tour
Hillary Clinton won't be keeping her supporters in suspense over whether she will run for president for much longer, after promising to reveal her decision on January 1, 2015.
Clinton was speaking on Friday at a charity event in Mexico for a foundation run by telecom billionaire Carlos Slim when she stated her choice would be made by the 'first of the year.'
The former secretary of state and presidential candidate also said she had a 'unique vantage point' on the position of president, according to a tweet by CNN's Dan Merica.
In the dark: Hillary Clinton reportedly stated her decision on whether to run in the next election would come by January 1
Business Insider notes that Clinton didn't move that fast during the run-up to the 2008 election, only announcing the launch of her campaign on January 20, 2007.
Clinton has kept a high public profile after leaving her post as secretary of state in 2013.
In an article last month in the Atlantic, Clinton put some of the blame for the rise of ISIS on President Obama.
'The failure to help build up a credible fighting force of the people who were the originators of the protests against Assad—there were Islamists, there were secularists, there was everything in the middle—the failure to do that left a big vacuum, which the jihadists have now filled,' said Clinton.
Clinton also focused on releasing her book Hard Choices, which was published by Simon & Schuster in June.
Pressing on: Clinton hit the road to promote her new book, which some likened to a presidential campaign, and included a stop in Martha's Vineyard
The tour had some salivating for a 2016 run
USA Today said the tour could be a good 'preview' of Clinton on the presidential trail while the Boston Globe called it a 'campaign-disguised-as-book-tour' and panned it.
