Hilary Clinton is constantly referring to her experience in government to enhance her arguments. This ethos approach draws the audience in because it makes it seem as though the country would be in good hands with her as the leader. She has mentioned that she was Secretary of State numerous times and does so every chance she gets.
Although I also noticed this over the course of the debate, I also had to consider the other candidates' self elevation. One example is when Bernie mentioned more than once his experience in congress. While Hillary did come on a bit strong, it also was important for her to establish ethos.
