It was 1988 when Ellen Malcolm founded EMILY'S List, the organization that encourages pro-choice Democratic women to run for office, raises money for them, and mobilized voters around the country, and she now has a candidate with a better-than-most chance of becoming the first woman president of the United States.

Described by Vanity Fair magazine as one of America's most influential woman, Malcolm, who is also the co-chair of New York Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign for president, met with some of her supporters Sunday afternoon at the home of Wendy and Rick Wilson.

"It isn't what you say, it's what you do," said Malcolm. "You can hope for change and demand change, but to achieve change takes hard work and that's what Hillary said in the debate last night."

Joined by state Sens. Kathy Sgambati of Tilton and Deborah Reynolds of Plymouth, Malcolm told the group what change Clinton has made in the lives of New Hampshire's citizens, including spearheading legislation that gave health insurance to 2,700 members of the N.H. National Guard, insuring 7,000 previously uninsured N.H. children under State Children's Health Insurance Program, and bringing immunizations to 324,000 New Hampshire children.

Malcolm said Saturday's ABC/WMUR/Facebook debate showed that Clinton was the candidate who could make change happen and not just talk about it.

Also at the Wilson's was Ann Lewis who is a senior adviser for Clinton and served as director of communications for President Bill Clinton during his second term.

Lewis said Clinton was pleased with the very large crowds she has been drawing throughout the state and said New Hampshire is a real get-it-done state that appreciates Clinton's ability to achieve results.

When one woman said she was still an undecided and challenged Clinton's stand on immigration, Lewis said Clinton was in favor of securing the borders, enforcing employer sanctions on hiring illegal workers, providing aid to communities that are inadvertently affected by illegal immigration, and providing a path to citizenship for those law-abiding people who pay taxes.

"She is also committed to working with our neighbors to the south to make their countries better for their own people," said Lewis who said Clinton program is "practical and achievable."

Malcolm said Clinton rebuilding and re-empowering the middle class is the whole foundation of the Clinton campaign.

"The middle class is going backward," said Malcolm adding the Bush administration's tax policies have been "a tremendous benefit to those very few at the top."

Malcolm and Lewis will be in New Hampshire until Tuesday campaigning for Clinton.
