Anthony Weiner, the former US congressman forced to resign after tweeting lewd photos of himself to women, said Wednesday that he's considering a political comeback with a run for mayor in New York. Weiner was once seen as a frontrunner to replace billionaire Michael Bloomberg in November elections to the Big Apple's City Hall. However, the Democrat's hard-charging political career in the US House of Representatives imploded in 2011 with the X-rated Twitter scandal.

Hillary Clinton, the former US secretary of state and possible candidate to become America's first female president, called women's rights on Friday the "unfinished business of the 21st century." Clinton, whose current spree of public appearances is feeding speculation that she's interested in a 2016 White House run, got standing ovation after ovation from the mostly female audience at the Women in the World conference in New York.

Hillary Clinton, whose every move is being scrutinized for signs that she might make a 2016 presidential run, announced Thursday she's penning a book outlining her views on the United States' role in the world. The ex-secretary of state's first book since leaving office will be published by Simon & Schuster in the summer of 2014, midway through President Barack Obama's final term, the publisher said.

Former US secretary of state Hillary Clinton, who may be eyeing a run in the 2016 presidential election, on Monday came off the sidelines and announced her support for gay marriage. While Clinton pushed gay, lesbian and transgender (LGBT) rights during her four-year tenure as America's top diplomat, considering them human rights, she had not until now advocated for gay marriage.
