Clinton, Nickelodeon Urge Healthy Eating Thursday October 20 4:19 PM ET
Bill Clinton is teaming with SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer in a campaign to nudge kids to eat healthy foods and to get up off the couch and move, the former president and Nickelodeon television executives announced Thursday.
"The idea that health decisions you make as kids could stop you from living your dream is heartbreaking to us," said Clinton, who will appear in public service announcements and in a town hall forum devoted to childhood obesity.
Clinton, who underwent quadruple coronary bypass surgery in September 2004 and a follow-up procedure in March, was joined by Nickelodeon Networks President Herb Scannell, Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and American Heart Association President Robert Eckel.
At a news conference announcing the effort at the Young Women's Leadership School in East Harlem, Scannell said Nickelodeon and its affiliates would commit about $30 million worth of air time a year to the campaign as well as promoting it on Web sites, theme parks and live stage shows.
The network already broadcasts PSAs that promote exercise and healthy eating and has licensed its characters including SpongeBob and Dora to appear on bags of baby carrots and other vegetables.
The town hall forum with Clinton, moderated by newswoman Linda Ellerbee, is scheduled to air Nov. 13 on Nickelodeon.
Why is he allowed anywhere near children?

Er uh,......BTTT
Can't they find a better role model? Why doesn't he tell the kiddies about safe sex? Did he use a condom when he was with Monica? NO! He cheats on his wife, left the entire nation open to terror attacks, was charged with perjury and lost his license to practice law, lied to his cabinet, the country and his family and friends, left our borders unprotected for eight years (oh yes..don't let the libmedia fool you, illegals have been crossing over forever), took Chinese money, let the corrupt UN steal bajillions of our tax dollars in the corrupt oil-for-food program while he turned a blind eye to all the terrorist thugs who were allied with our supposed EU "pals".
Nickolodean must be out of its collective mind.
LOL!!!
This from BIG-MAC Bill??
That's a great list. You might also have asked: what's a guy who uses his face as Monica's bicycle seat know about eating healthy?
Bill Clinton was a pig all his life until he had a quadruple bypass and had to chill out and eat more sanely. Dang, I hate when these people who do nasty things all their their life do a 180 and start preaching to others
Nickelodeon is Viacom. Viacom is MTV, VH1, CBS, and so on.
The is perfectly consistent with what they do. Cradle to grave left-wing propaganda.
Was sipping coffee when I ran across that...you need a copywrite on that one...
Sickolodean.
Bill is attempting to create a new legacy among the youth who have no idea who he really is.
