When politicians are asked about books that have impacted them, they typically refer to the Bible, or influential works on the theory of government and economics.

Not Hillary Clinton.

She says her own book has influenced her.

During a discussion with Vox’s Ezra Klein, Clinton said her 1996 book “It Takes A Village” has influenced the way she thinks about government policy.

“What are three books that have influenced how you think about policy that you think everyone should read?” Klein asked.

“Oh my gosh, there are so many that I’ve read over the years. I wrote one called ‘It Takes A Village,’ which I highly recommend,” she responded.

“You can’t plug your own book,” Klein admonished her.
