What Will Bill Clinton Be Called If Hillary Clinton Becomes President?

“With an African-American, you hate to be the first, but there was a level of animosity by leaders in the Republican Party against Barack Obama and there was something about it that just went beyond politics”. America is already strong.

A lifelong Republican, former admiral John Hutson, referred to Trump insulting the 2008 nominee: “Donald, you’re not fit to polish John McCain’s boots”.

For Democrats, the night was steeped in symbolism, the passing of the baton from a barrier-breaking president to a candidate trying to make history herself. It culminated with Clinton making a surprise appearance on stage to greet Obama with a long embrace, an nearly unimaginable image eight years ago when they battled for the Democratic nomination.

The White House said Obama had been working on the roughly 45-minute speech for weeks.

“Tonight, the Democrats offered only more rewards for the rich, powerful and well-connected, and more angry, demeaning, sniping attacks against all decent Americans who want change for their families”, he said.

Obama, in an interview earlier Wednesday with NBC News, no one should feel confident heading into an election. Tim Kaine, introduced himself to the nation as a formidable foil to Trump in his own right. “I’m both”, she said. Although Mr Bloomberg was originally elected as mayor as a Republican he made a decision to speak up for Ms Clinton at the confab because of his deep dismay with Mr Trump. He warned repeatedly Wednesday that the billionaire businessman is unprepared for the challenges that would await him in the Oval Office. It doesn’t make sense that Sanders would endorse Clinton out of fear of Trump becoming president, especially since Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein shares a platform with significantly more similarities to Sanders’ campaign than Clinton’s.

“You hate to use the race card, but there was something different”, said Ellis, a Hillary Clinton delegate.

The night’s underlying theme is security — national security, economic security and safety from gun crime.

Frustrations are piling up for some of the Iowa delegates on a day Democratic leaders hoped to unify the party at their national convention.

PROGRESSIVE candidate Bernie Sanders played his part in the great Democratic Party convention coming-together stunt in Philadelphia on Tuesday night by proposing that Hillary Clinton be declared presidential nominee by acclamation. Obama said no one should take the election for granted.

Clinton’s landmark achievement saturated the roll call with emotion and symbols of women’s long struggle to break through political barriers.

“Millions are realizing that if we want to fix the rigged economy, the rigged racial injustice system, the rigged health care system, toxic fossil fuel energy and all the other systems failing us, we must fix the rigged political system, and that will not happen through rigged Democratic Party”, Stein proclaimed in a statement after the confusing endorsement. He tore into Trump, mocking his pledges to build a wall along the Mexican border, asking why he has not released his tax returns and slamming his business record, including the now-defunct Trump University.

The Trump campaign, Miller said, offers a bold, exciting, detailed vision for the future.

Liberals, particularly those who supported Vermont Sen. Several delegates held up anti-TPP signs as he spoke. Trump could also drive up his support among white men only to see Clinton buoyed with better support than Obama had from white Republican women who dislike Trump. And, among Democrats in the last Texas Politics Project poll, Obama, with a job approval rating of 83 percent among Democrats, was more popular with Democrats than Clinton, who had a favorable-to-unfavorable rating of 67 to 19 percent.

That coalition was vividly on display in the first two nights of the convention in Philadelphia.

“Women win. When women win, children win…” It’s not ‘girl.’ But he said, ‘I met a girl.’… He was emotional as he thanked Americans for sustaining him through hard stretches.

“With respect to my own husband, I am probably still going to pick the flowers and the china for state dinners and stuff like that”, Hillary Clinton said in the ABC News Democratic debate in December. Which is why she is, as I titled the book, ‘Hillary the other woman.’ That’s the way he always viewed her, he always has, he always did and he still does.
