Bill Clinton wants a female president [panhandling in China for the Clinton Foundation]
The Hill ^ | November 18, 2013 | Mario Trujillo

Posted on 11/18/2013 5:40:38 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

Former President Bill Clinton said he hopes there will be a female president in his lifetime — but is unsure if he will ever be a “first man.”

Clinton on Monday told a Chinese audience that a female president would be good for the United States.

His wife, Hillary Clinton, is considered the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination in 2016 if she decides to run.

"I hope we have a woman president in my lifetime, and I think it would be a good thing for the world as well as for America," Bill Clinton said, according to Agence France-Presse.

Clinton said, however, he does not know yet if his wife will run. Hillary Clinton has said she will not start to seriously consider a run until sometime next year, but a number of Democratic lawmakers have preemptively endorsed her or encouraged her to run.

"But I do not know if she's going to run, and there is no such thing as a 'sure thing' in politics," he said.

Asked about his wife’s run in a different way, Clinton said he “couldn’t say” if he would ever be the “first man” in the White House.

"But I can give you an honest answer: 'I have no idea,' " he said.

Clinton said his wife is less motivated by a “fear of failure” that she was a decade ago. He said he and his wife continue to feel healthy. If Hillary Clinton does decide to run, he said he would support her.

"If that's what she wants to do, I will support her," Clinton said. "But if she decides for whatever reason she doesn't, I will support that."

Clinton was in China to meet with the country’s president and promote the Clinton Foundation.

Well Bill, maybe you’ll get your wish. I’m thinking Cruz-Rubio in ‘16 and again in ‘20. Then maybe Palin and ??? in 2024? In the 8 years of Cruz she could be part of his administration and pick up a lot of experience and positive publicity.

Let’s just skip over Hilary and go straight to Chelsea. She has no experience so she’s a perfect successor to Obama.

Hillary Clinton becoming next POTUS would be like nuking the Titanic after it hit the iceberg.

FR POSTED---A hint WRT who then-Pres Clinton profited using our govt---now indebted to the Clintons----who are large contributors to the Clintons' three "tax-exempt foundations," and are, in effect, financing Hillary's ambitions.

===================================

Billy Boy Clinton was grinning like a simpering fool at the annual meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative Foundation....even Boobomba was there hugging Billy like they were old pals.....all in the wake of the bombshell news that:

<><> the tax-exempt Global Initiative Foundation uses shady financing;

<><> the tax-exempt Clinton Global Initiative had employed an active Muzzie terrorist.

Gehad el-Haddad
(The stupid Clintons did not know Gehad was Farsi for "jihad")

Gehad also knows how the Muslim Brotherhood launders money to finance terrorism, using "tax-exempt foundations."

==============================================

THE CLINTON FOUNDATIONS / MUSLIM TERRORISM CONNECTION --- The recent story that a Muslim terrorist was working at the Clinton Foundation AND conducting terrorist activities at the same time, explains why the Clintons just remade themselves into the hallowed "Clinton Family Foundation."

The "Holy Family."

The Clintons' shady proclivities are unveiled in the recent NYT story. Corruption, greed, entitlement, nepotism, cronyism. The Clintons didn't have a pot to *** in in Arkansas---never even had a home to call their own. Now they're multi millionaires.......the connivers have perfected the scam WRT gaming the govt system for themselves.

=====================================

There needs to be a thorough going-over of the three Clinton Foundations. We need to know who pays/funds the Clinton's lifestyle/political ambitions---- especially b/c Hillary is running for prez. It is important to know to whom the Clinton's are truly indebted.

NY POST EXCERPT ----The Bill Clinton Foundation has spent more than $50 million on travel expenses — Bill Clinton’s foundation has spent more than $50 million on travel expenses since 2003, an analysis of the nonprofit’s tax forms reveal.....includes $4.2 million in 2011 for the William J. Clinton Foundation (to which Hillary and Chelsea are attached); $730,000 for the Clinton Global Health Initiative; and $7.2 million for the Clinton Health Action Initiative (CHAI).

==============================================

How many ways can the conniving Clintons use their name to launder money?

<><> The William J. Clinton Family Foundation......

<><> the Clinton Global Health Initiative......

<><> the Clinton Health Action Initiative (CHAI).

More importantly, what is the connection between Corzine's MF Global, Teneo (which paid Bill Clinton $50,000 per month), The Clintons multiple tax-exempt foundations, and Muslim money-Laundering?

All Clinton wants to do is give his wife another chance to steal the furniture and silverware from the Whitehouse, assuming Moooooooooochelle doesn’t beat Hitlary to it as the odumbos leave.

There must be one last White House worker that he wasn’t able to nail while he was there. May he OD on Viagra trying to get it done.

Ya, I thought that too.

Bill doesn’t exactly want to see just any woman president. If he did, then he would support Palin for president, or Susana Martinez, or some other Republican woman, as well as Hillary.

Liberals who talk about it being time for a woman president and all that, they don’t really mean it. Since these people would never support a Sarah Palin conservative, they are not intellectually honest.,

What they really mean is that they want a liberal woman president. Big difference between wanting just another liberal/radical president, who happens to be a woman, vs. wanting to see a woman president just to break that barrier.

Liberals would explode if the first woman president were Republican/conservative.

I suppose so because she is the only female who can become US President instead of Mrs. Benghazi.
