Hillary Clinton enjoyed watching her alter ego personify her on SNL, the "Saturday Night Live show" from New York. She also said that she loved impersonations of her first by Amy Poehler and later by Kate McKinnon.

It revealed a slightly different perspective and made her learn something new about herself watching the two artists acting out their versions of Hillary Clinton. She also said that she decided to appear on the show on request on Lorne Michaels, said CNN.

She presented herself with one of the prerequisites of a.presidential candidate - the ability to laugh at oneself, said Zap2It. She also surprised her fans by doing a sketch alongside Kate McKinnon who was impersonating Clinton on the show. When Kate entered a bar bemoaning her life, she introduced herself as a bartender 'Val' and began advising on various subjects. The duo shared a fist-bump and finished off the sketch singing a "Lean on Me" duet.

She has appeared on Saturday Night Live earlier and said, "It was crazy. You show up, and they're still writing it, and they're putting the airplane together in the air, and they're showing you what they want you to say and where they want you to stand, and then they say no they want it different," said Hillary Clinton about SNL in an exclusive interview with ET Online.

Hillary Clinton has also received an endorsement from the Teacher's union for their support for her presidential campaign. The National Education Association that has more than 3 million members announced its support for Hillary Clinton. She accepted the support in person after speaking earlier in the day to Human Rights Campaign in Washington, reported CNN.

National Education Association is one of the largest skilled labour unions in the United States. However, Clinton received a setback when the International Association of Fire Fighters abandoned its initial plans to support her, said The Times of India.
