On the same day that HBO will premiere the fifth season of its hit series "Game of Thrones," it is also expected that Hillary Clinton will be announcing her official campaign for the presidency in 2016, a source close to her told the New York Daily News. The rumored announcement, scheduled on Sunday, April 12, is expected to be shown via video and on social media.

The former secretary of state could reportedly begin her campaign in Iowa and New Hampshire. The NY Daily News noted that Clinton could get the Democratic nomination as her numbers have been consistently strong for months.

“I think this is great news. As far as I’m concerned the quicker she gets in the better everything will be. Among other things, now that she’s getting in she’ll have a full operation to help her not only define her policies but to ward off all these attacks that are coming from the right as well,”veteran Democratic strategist Jim Manley told The NY Daily News.

The Economist noted that while Clinton is a force to be reckoned with, the results are still unpredictable. For instance, the last time she ran, polls also thought that she's a shoo-in, but ended up losing to Barack Obama, who was then a young senator from Illinois.

The outlet explained that for someone who has been in the national stage for as long as she have, Clinton's beliefs are still "strangely hard to pin down." But then again, the Economist noted that she did describe herself as an "idealistic realist", at least as far as foreign policy is concerned, if that makes sense.

While Clinton has been preparing for her presidential campaign, she has reportedly leased office space for a headquarters in Brooklyn and is hiring key staffers. Her challengers, former Virginia Senator Jim Webb and former Rhode Island Governor Lincoln Chafee have already launched theirs, as noted by Business Insider, with another candidate also considered, former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley.

The world is vastly different now than the last time she ran for office. In her 2008 economic plan, Clinton was less keen on trade details as compared to her husband, but is quite close to Obama's health insurance kick, The Economist noted. Her foreign policy was pitched to be stricter than that of her then-competition, and yet, as the Economist explained, many details of her plans were left unfilled. That being said, considering her popularity, not just in the U.S. but to many foreigners around the globe, it is predicted that she will be a welcome change for other nationalities.

She's definitely going to run for president, but do you think she has a shot this time, or will she lose this game again?
