If that’s not widespread, I don’t know what is.

Among the first questions to Clinton was about her ties to Wall Street, as a former New York senator, in an election in which concerns about corporate malfeasance and Wall Street greed are tantamount. “You start with something, that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll stick with it all the way”.
“Well, you know, we’ll just have to wait and see how that turns out”, Clinton carefully responded.
Mr. Podesta was White House chief of staff under President Clinton and is now campaign chairman for Ms. Clinton. “So would Bill do that?”
“Would he be the first man, would he be the first gentleman, would he be the first mate?” “Because he did a really good job”.
Clinton also confided that the former president would jump at the chance to run again. In his opinion, “it never made sense why you would want to extract and transport a few of the dirtiest fuel on this planet”. “If he could, he would”.
In a format that was three parts talk show to one part game show, the candidates faced probing inquiries as well as random questions pulled from sealed envelopes as they sat nearly knee-to-knee with MSNBC host Rachel Maddow in front of a boisterous campus audience.
While House Republicans recently spent 11 hours relentlessly drilling Clinton about Benghazi and her personal email account, the larger disaster by far is the postwar chaos that’s left Libya without a functioning government, overrun by feuding warlords and extremist militants.
Asked about the Republican field, Clinton suggested that Republicans deny against climate change because of connections to oil and fossil fuel companies. “You’ve got to walk the walk”, he said. “I believe we can bring together 70% people who are exhausted of horrific massacres”, he said. “People think I am too serious”, he said.
Clinton’s Kimmel visited comes after an appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” in September and on the “Late Show With Stephen Colbert” last month. He went on to boast, “I am the only Democratic candidate without a Super Pac”. Jimmy Kimmel did his recent hit segment, interviews with an “out of focus” group, and asked four children if a woman could be President of the United States. Then the other piped in and added, “They’re too girly”. “They might even paint it pink”, he said.
The master of the game will give an indescribable boost to the prospects of Americans electing our first woman president.
“Will you have the head spot at the dinner table now that you would be president?”

The presidential hopeful also said that Mr. Clinton has been working to break the “iron grip” that women have had in the position of First Lady.
