WASHINGTON Esa Lindell Stars Jersey , April 17 (Xinhua) -- Just as U.S. President Barack Obama is often treated as a celebrity abroad but faces flagging popularity and heavy criticism at home, the same is true for Hillary Clinton: While she's a global celebrity, she is a polarizing figure at home.


That was evident Tuesday as she left a campaign event in the U. S. state of Iowa just days after announcing her run for president in 2016, when some reporters from overseas chased her van as if they were the Paparazzi covering royalty.


But despite her glamorous resume as a former First Lady and Secretary of State and a name that is recognized worldwide, that may not matter to ordinary Americans.


Rather, Americans are still interested mainly in the economy, as they always have been Tyler Pitlick Stars Jersey , and want to see a candidate who can persuade them that she understands the everyday issues of ordinary middle-class Americans.


Frank Newport, editor-in-chief at the polling company Gallup, said that Clinton is clearly one of the best known people in the U. S., but Americans' views of her, either positive or negative, are more likely to be very partisan.


Clinton's overall favorability rate, according to Gallup Devin Shore Stars Jersey , is 48 percent favorable and 42 percent unfavorable. "She's an extremely well-known figure, but a polarizing figure to Americans. Some people like her, some don't," Newport told Xinhua.


Analysts note that Clinton lacks the folksy charm of her husband, former President Bill Clinton, and struggles to relate to many ordinary Americans.


She is now trying to counter any negative public perceptions of aloofness, kicking off her campaign with a road trip to Iowa in which she drove to the state in a van. Her current mode of travel sits in sharp contrast to the chartered helicopter she used in her 2008 campaign for president.


A video released Sunday to officially announce Clinton's run for president shows panoply of Americans Mattias Janmark Stars Jersey , including a stay-at-home mother going back to work after five years, two Spanish speaking brothers starting a business, and an African American couple preparing for the arrival of a baby.


The video is clearly aimed at sending "everyday Americans" -- as Clinton refers to them -- the message that they are highest on her agenda. "Americans have fought their way back from tough economic times, but the deck is still stacked in favor of those at the top," Clinton said in the video.


"Everyday Americans need a champion, and I want to be that champion," she said.


Indeed Radek Faksa Stars Jersey , in U.S. presidential elections, personality often trumps policy, and that may prove to be Clinton's main challenge in the race to the White House.


Still, one of Clinton's main strengths is how she resonates with American women, essentially half of the population. A recent Gallup poll shows that 56 percent of American women have a favorable opinion of Clinton, and another Gallup poll released earlier the year found that Clinton's position as the first possible female president is her main selling point.


But other issues beyond her gender will come up in the lead up to 2016 elections, as Republican candidates will try to link Clinton to White House's perceived foreign policy missteps John Klingberg Stars Jersey , some of which occurred while she was secretary of state.


She will also have to broaden her appeal beyond her Democratic base, as experts said it is important that she avoids casting her candidacy too narrowly.


Moreover, polls find that many Americans, even those of Democratic Party, do not trust her, especially after revelations that she solely used a private email account to conduct business during her four-year tenure as secretary of state.


"Her biggest problem is that she has a trust deficit -- people are not seeing her as honest and trustworthy," Republican strategist Ford O'Connell told Xinhua.


ROME Dan Hamhuis Stars Jersey , Jan. 5 (Xinhua) -- Pino Daniele, an Italian master of blues, rock, soul, funk and traditional Neapolitan music, died of a heart attack on Sunday night at the age of 59, local media reported on Monday.


The sudden death of the songwriter Jason Spezza Jersey , first announced by fellow singers on social networks, was later confirmed by Daniele's agent and family.


Daniele felt sick at his residence in Tuscany, a region in central Italy, and was rushed to a hospital in capital Rome. His conditions, however, were desperate and there was nothing doctors could do, health authorities at the hospital told Rai State television.


Italian leaders called Daniele's death a huge loss for the country. "I still have in my ears his music from New Year's Eve (celebrations) Alexander Radulov Jersey ," Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi was quoted by ANSA news agency as saying.


Renzi defined Daniele's voice as "incredible" and accompanied by a "rare sensitivity" which "with passion and melancholy, will continue to narrate Italy throughout the world."


"I learnt with painful surprise of the death of Pino Daniele, a songwriter who was able to give an original contribution to the musical tradition of his city," Italian President Giorgio Napolitano said in a statement.


"There is sadness for Pino Daniele. His love for Naples - the art city in southern Italy where the songwriter was born - and his curiosity for the rhythms of the world have been able to move the entire Italy," Lower House President Laura Boldrini said in her words posted on a social network.


Tributes were flowing from authorities in many parts of Italy. Naples Mayor Luigi de Magistris said the day of Daniele's funeral, which will be held in Rome on Wednesday, will be declared a city-wide day of mourning.


Daniele was born in 1955 in the historic center of Naples. A self-taught guitarist Ben Bishop Jersey , he began his career in the 1970s as guitar player and then as bass player in two bands, before releasing his first album in 1977.


His talent was confirmed when he scored his greatest success in 1980, with the album Nero a meta (Half-Black Skinned).
