Obama, Bill Clinton said, “doesn’t know how to be president” and is “incompetent.”
But Hillary resisted the entreaties, according to two of the guests interviewed for the book.
“Why risk everything now?” a skeptical Hillary told her husband, emphasizing that she wanted to leave a legacy as secretary of state.
“Because,” Bill replied, his voice rising, “the country needs you!”
“The country needs us!” added Bill.
He later even joked about the prospect of having two Clinton presidential libraries — about the only time that Hillary cracked a smile.
“I want my term [at the State Department] to be an important one, and running away from it now would leave it as a footnote,” Hillary argued.
She said she had the option of running again in 2016.
But Bill wouldn’t let go.
“I know you’re young enough!” Bill said, his voice booming. “That’s not what I’m worried about. I’m worried that I’m not young enough.”
“I’m the highest-ranking member in Obama’s Cabinet. I eat breakfast with the guy every Thursday morning. What about loyalty, Bill? What about loyalty?” she responded.
“Loyalty is a joke,’’ Bill shot back. “Loyalty doesn’t exist in politics.”
Bill’s verbal battle with Hillary over the presidency, if anything, intensified when daughter Chelsea showed up with her husband, Marc Mezvinsky.

I could see it happening.
Obama must be really ticked off right about now!

Spoken like a true elitist.
Bush, Clinton,Bush,Obama,Clinton.
It reads like the last days of the Roman Republic with the Julii and the Bruti clans battling it out for control.
Go back to lookin’ at that Time Magazine cover and stop being a prissy pants.
OK sorry ....
but good news needs repeating!
Thanks for posting this cc. I missed the first two posts.
Somebody fails to search and that makes me the bad guy?
Makes perfect sense, yup.
This probably quells any thought of her replacing Biden as VP.
But, it sure is a hoot to see the Dems all trying to out-lie each other. Goodness politics is awful - and full of awful people anymore.
“Spoken like a true elitist.”
You forgot to add egotistical, arrogant, egomaniacal, and sociopathic with delusions of grandeur.
“The country needs us.”
What's the saying about an acorn not falling far from the tree?
““Loyalty is a joke,’’ Bill shot back. “Loyalty doesn’t exist in politics.”
Or marriage, Bill?
The first clue was when it said he spoke in a “booming voice”. Bill Clinton has never had such a thing.
