Clinton: I'd put Bill 'in charge of revitalizing the economy'
The Hill ^ | May 15, 2016 | Jessie Hellmann

Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton is beginning to hint at what role her husband, former President Bill Clinton, could have in her administration if elected president.

At a campaign stop in Fort Mitchell, Ky., Clinton said her husband would be "in charge of revitalizing the economy."

Clinton often boasts about her husbands economic record on the campaign trail, leaning heavily on his record of raising wages and creating jobs.

"The economy does better when you have a Democrat in the White House," Clinton said at the Oct. 13 debate.

Clinton said something similar at a campaign event in early May, saying she would bring him out of retirement to create jobs.

"He's got more ideas a minute than anybody I know," Clinton said. "Gotta put people back to work and make it happen. So we're going to give it all we've got, absolute full-in 100 percent effort, because I worry we won't recognize our country if we don't do this."

I just imagine that he will do that down at local whorehouses all over the country. Kinda like OJ Simpson’s “search” for his wife’s killer at golf courses all over the world until Nevada put him in the slammer. I just hope he manages to kill himself in the process if for some reason he get the opportunity to “serve.”

Hate to have to say it, but the economy is better now than in was in 2008 after the bank failures and two unfunded wars.

Here in the northeast the economy is definitely worse that 2007/2008; after losing financial sector jobs we now bleed retail jobs. American families are disappearing, and pension obligations ensure the high costs have remained while incomes have fallen (or disappeared). The solution to prevent the total desertion of this area is unfettered access to foreigners; the whole area is a “sanctuary”. Despite Nancy Pelosi’s contention, wealth transfers via government are not the same as jobs; somebody has to pay the bills (and there are less and less Americans left to do so).

A lot of the “Clinton economy” was BS; if things were that great under him Gore would have crushed Bush II. Some people did well (and Gore won the popular vote), but it would have been a landslide Gore victory if the real economy at the end of BJ Clinton’s term was anything like the enemedia hailed it to be.

Free Viagra for all will be Slick’s, ‘stimulus package.’

These people are insane...and extremely dangerous to America!

Just stroke out, already, Hillary! Do us all a favor.

Good one and if she persists in that idea, Trump should hit her hard over it....

I think it’s a great idea. So great, in fact, we should name the new jobs program after him. We’ll call them “Bill Jobs”, or “B-Jobs” for short.

Spread the word.

Because I would worry that Clinton dying would be a game changer, with Hillary getting sympathy votes as the grieving widow.

Actually, this is a gift to Trump.

Bill has been doing lots of questionable things, from the Clinton Foundation speeches/bribes, to his trips on the "Lolita Express".

Hillary just made all of that "fair game", by promising to bring Bill into her administration. Now, Trump can ask: "Do you really want this man back in the White House?"

——”Do you really want this man back in the White House?”-—

“He is the first elected President to be impeached. Impeachment is an irrevocable stain, a badge of dishonor. His stench will once again permeate the government and the White House” and that is just for openers
