Hillary Clinton has been struggling to interact with everyday Americans on her campaign listening tour, not least because she has a hard time relating to people who have never met a sultan or run a mining business in an authoritarian country. However, she has displayed considerable political and physical skill throughout these interactions, and her opponents would be wise to take note.

In addition to her soothing, naturally human laugh, Hillary’s ability to deploy what is commonly known as the "head nod" at crucial moments while pretending to care about normal Americans is nothing short of impressive. Her arsenal of head nods contains numerous variations and speaks to her considerable skill as person who wants nothing more in this life than to acquire as much power and money as possible. Let's take a look:
