Pamela Harriman, the Woman who made Bill Clinton President
http://www.anusha.com/pamela-h.htm
Behind every great man there is a woman and what is often overlooked is that the woman behind Bill Clinton was Pamela Harriman.
Pamela Harriman was married three times to rich and famous men. Two of them died and left her all of their money. This gave her the wealth and power she needed to bankroll the future president.
Born Pamela Digby, her first husband was the son of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. He was a heavy drinker and that marriage ended in divorce.
Next, she married famous Broadway producer Leland Hayward, who produced “The Sound of Music”.
After he died, she married Averell Harriman, then 79 years old, who was a former New York governor and Ambassador to Britain and the Soviet Union, and a former candidate for President of the United States. His family owned Brown Brothers Harriman, America’s leading investment banking and brokerage firm.
Pamela Harriman obviously took good care of her men, and when he died she got every dime.
Always a supporter of liberal causes, she spoke at the 1984 Democratic National Convention, but her candidate lost. Pamela Harriman then bankrolled young Bill Clinton’s 1992 presidential campaign. She raised $12 million for him. After Clinton was elected, any time she wanted to see him, she called him up and he came right over to her house in Georgetown.
Clinton appointed her as US Ambassador to France, where she died on February 5, 1997 at the age of 76. She died of a cerebral hemorrhage she suffered while swimming in the Embassy swimming poll.
