Bill’s speech was (fill in the blank) | Your comments

While her aides believe his past transgressions are old news to voters, they have flared up anew at times during the campaign, with Trump often leading the charge. Or relatable. Or honest.

Former presidents often address conventions to boost their would-be successors; none had ever done so for a candidate who happened to be a spouse, much less the first woman ever nominated by a major party. And so, viewers were treated to a march of stories and testimonials. “That is just who she is. there are clear, achievable, affordable responses to our challenges. but we will not get to them if america makes the wrong choice in this election”. She said yeah. I said, while you were gone I bought it, you have to marry me now. Each speaker or set of speakers was placed for this objective, to reintroduce Hillary Clinton to the public-not as a hypercompetent diplomat or a steely-eyed legislator, or indefatigable presidential candidate, but as a relatable, good-hearted, and fundamentally decent woman.

Clinton has expressed regret for signing the 1994 crime bill, which led to mass incarcerations, particularly of minorities.

Clearly, the only viable photo from the evening was one of Bill Clinton. Whatever he had accomplished, he seemed to imply, was largely thanks to her. She’s the devoted mother who gave her all to raise their daughter. She’s the “change maker” who worked behind the scenes to improve life for the marginalized and disadvantaged. She’s his best friend and an invaluable partner in life. “She closed her book, looked down, and started walking toward me”, Clinton said. “And we’ve done it in good times and bad, through joy and heartbreak”.

Bill Clinton didn’t have to craft his speech this way.

“One is real, the other is made up”, he said. “Your only option is to create a cartoon alternative, then run against the cartoons. Real life is complex and hard to absorb”. “And Hillary was an enabler and she treated these women horribly”. He enjoys working overseas – his popularity is sky-high in many foreign countries – and he likes calling up whomever he wants, whenever he wants, especially his wife.

The roots of Bill and Hillary Clinton’s almost 40-year political dynasty dates back to a class they took together at Yale Law School in 1971. He sounded more like Ann Romney than, well, Bill Clinton. And it was made doubly unusual by the fact that Hillary Clinton is among the most famous women in the world. How would anyone have been able to find a photo of her?

If Bill Clinton wants to help his wife get elected, he should stop thinking the American public has amnesia or is too dumb to see through a mirage.

Bill Clinton headlined the second night of the Democratic convention, a jubilant celebration of her formal nomination for president.

Hillary Rodham Clinton has been showing up for work for four decades. And part of that is distrust, fueled both by her actions and the swirl of attacks and innuendo that surround Hillary, and have surrounded her for years.

The experience was a little different for Bill and Hillary Clinton – their story involves stalking and… fish?
