TOKYO (AP) - Former President Clinton said Sunday that his wife, Hillary, would be an excellent choice as the first female leader of the world's most powerful nation.
In an interview with Japan's TV Asahi, Clinton said he did not know whether his wife, the senator of New York state, has any plans to one day run for the presidency.
"I don't know if she'll run or not," he told the network, but added, "She would make an excellent president, and I would always try to help her."
Hillary Rodham Clinton has said she plans to run for re-election as New York senator in 2006. Speculation has periodically surfaced, however, that the 57-year-old former first lady may have her sights set for the presidency in 2008.
Results from a U.S. poll released last week showed that six in 10 American voters believe the United States is ready for a female president.
Fifty-three percent thought Hillary Clinton should try for the job, according to the survey by the Siena College Research Institute and sponsored by Hearst Newspapers.
"If she did run and she was able to win, she'd make a very, very good president," Clinton said Sunday. "I think now she's at least as good as I was."
Clinton was in Japan on a three-day visit to attend an international forum organized by the Asahi newspaper and to promote a Japanese-language edition of his best-selling memoir "My Life."
" Results from a U.S. poll released last week showed that six in 10 American voters believe the United States is ready for a female president. "
They may be ready for a female president , but it's not going to be Hillary " Treetrunklegs " Clinton .
I hear she doesn't even bake good cookies.
If she's so great why'd he have to cheat on her over and over?
A couple of years ago one of the Democrat members of her health care task force was quoted as saying Hill should never be allowed anywhere near the presidency (officially). He said her management skills were nonexistent and her people skills were even worse.
Hillary! and Slick Willie, trying hard to create a sense of inevitability around her "presidency."
An endorsement by clinton is the kiss of death.
A rapist enabler is the poster girl for every criminal in the history of civilization.
In reality the two of them are nothing more than a(POS). If federal law enforcement had done their job they would be in jail and not rich. Great?????? Democrats, pleeeeaaaasssssseeeeee!!!! NSNR
She has the skills of a marxist revolutionary. The demon will avoid eye to eye contact in fear of revealing her true self. If I am not mistaken, all personnel of the white house were told avoid staring into the eyes of the (Succubus). NSNR
This is all a moot point.
Hillary will never be president. Why you ask?
Because I submit that her health is not good, it will begin to decline rapidly, and if she doesn't seek re-election next year, it will be for HEALTH reasons.
She is not a well woman. How do I know?
Just a hunch. ;)
We're off to see the Wizard, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.Because of what? Hillary. You are qualified because.......?
You'll find he is a whiz of a Wiz! If ever a Wiz! there was.
If ever oh ever a Wiz! there was The Wizard of Oz is one because, Because, because, because, because, because.
Because of the wonderful things he does.
Great News (for al-Queda, Venezuela, North Korea, Iran, Mexico,.....). Bad news for Americans.
I don't think he would be able to stand being First Gentleman in the WH. Pay back is a bitch they say.

I heard these poll results earlier in the week on the radio but no where do they ask, "Would you vote Hillary Clinton for President?" They seem to be making an assumption that "ready for a female president" means Hillary.
They did identify the people polled as approximately half Dems and half Republicans but noticeably absent was the gender demographics of those polled.
