A source with knowledge of Hillary Clinton's plans has confirmed that she will officially announce her 2016 presidential bid on Saturday or Sunday. This will be imminently followed by campaign travel.

A spokesperson for Clinton's campaign team did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider.

Clinton has long been expected to enter the 2016 race. Polls show her well ahead of all her likely Democratic and Republican rivals.

She has been ramping up her presidential preparations including leasing office space for a headquarters in Brooklyn, New York, and hiring key staffers.............

Hillary Clinton to announce 2016 bid Sunday with video

(CNN)Hillary Clinton is planning to launch her presidential candidacy on Sunday through a video message on social media, a person close to her campaign-in-waiting tells CNN, followed immediately by traveling to early-voting states of Iowa and New Hampshire to start making her case to voters.

The trip to Iowa, where a third-place finish in 2008 ultimately led to the collapse of her presidential aspirations, illustrates what aides say is a commitment to not take anything for granted in her second bid for the White House, even though she dominates the likely Democratic field in 2016.

Clinton has already filmed her campaign video, a person close to the campaign said, which outlines the central themes of her second bid for the White House. The message is intended to send a signal to Democrats that she intends to aggressively fight for the party's presidential nomination.

A new epilogue of her book, an excerpt of which was released Friday to the Huffington Post, offers a glimpse into why she is embarking on another presidential campaign. She writes about her new granddaughter, Charlotte, and calls for equal opportunity for her generation.

The 13 words you can’t write about Hillary

Hillary Clinton has been in the public eye for a very long time, which means much has been written about her -- including quite a few adjectives. But some of these adjectives are now off-limits.

That's according to the Clinton "Super Volunteers," who have promised to track the media's use of words they believe to be sexist code words. The New York Times's Amy Chozick tweeted a missive she received from the group (which we would note is almost definitely not connected to official Team Clinton) on Wednesday:

So these words are now off the table: "polarizing," "calculating," "disingenuous," "insincere," "ambitious," "inevitable," "en led," "over-confident," "secretive," "will do anything to win," "represents the past," and "out of touch."

How about pathological liar?

The GOP candidate should just run against Obama the way Obama ran against George W.

The GOP candidate should just run against Obama the way Obama ran against George W.

Probably be about what happens.

The problem, of course, is that Obama isn't quite as universally unpopular as GW was.

There is a huge slice of the electorate that is hugely hysterical about Obama, but they are not a plurality by any stretch.

Given the overall economic recovery, I'm not sure that will be a very viable strategy. The case was easily be made in 2008 that the burgeoning crisis could be laid at GW's feet.

The GOP candidate should just run against Obama the way Obama ran against George W.

And just how did Obama or Hillary run against dubya?

There's a reason the Repugs EXCLUDED dubya from campaigning for Repug Pres candidates in 2008 and 2012.
