Wonder Woman Endorses Hillary Clinton For President

Washington, D.C.-area resident Lynda Carter, who portrayed the 1970s TV superhero Wonder Woman, again voiced her support for Presidential candidate.

In a recent article on The Hill, Carter not only reinforced her early endorsement of Hillary Clinton, but said that Americans should pay more respect to the presidency, regardless of which party holds it.

"I think that we, as a nation, need to honor whoever it is that is in the White House, be it Republican or Democrat," said Carter. "And that is where I think we have gone wrong as a nation."

The longtime Democrat, who endorsed Hillary Clinton even before the candidate had entered the race, said that while she had very liberal views, she felt that it was time to start bringing people together.

"What is interesting to me is that I think the people that are not behind Hillary will never be behind Hillary. And I'm not so worried about that," she said.

Saying she endorses Clinton "all the way, all the time," Carter, 64, heaped praise on the former secretary of State: "It is that we really do need a voice that has the kind of experience that she has. We can't start from zero -- I think we need to hit the ground running."

In an earlier article on The Hill, Carter joked that the former Secretary of State could even use her Lasso of Truth, which was, "formed from Aphrodite's girdle and forced whomever was bound with it to obey the commands of whomever held the other end."

"Hillary has my endorsement for all of her life and mine," Carter said of Clinton, adding that "the women who are in Congress are the ones that float my boat."

Carter told People Magazine that she has been friends with the Clintons for decades, and can't wait to have a woman in the White House.

"My husband and I have known the Clintons since 1983 or '84. We're family friends. Hillary has never changed, she has always been the smartest person in the room," said Carter, who is married to businessman Robert A. Altman.

"We need someone that gets it, that gets all of it. She doesn't need four years of training before she gets it in the White House. We want someone that can be off and running. She did it in the Senate," said Carter. "She is our chance to have our turn as a woman in the White House.�It is the voice of the women of our country that can help the voiceless women in other countries."
