Democrat Clinton makes history, wins US presidential nomination

By Amanda Becker and Luciana Lopez
Philadelphia, Jul 27 (Reuters) Hillary Clinton secured the Democratic Party's White House nomination, coming back from a stinging defeat in her first presidential run in 2008 and surviving a bitter primary fight to become the first woman to head the ticket of a major party in US history.
