Bill Clinton Would Be 'In Charge of Revitalizing the Economy,' Hillary Clinton Says

FORT MITCHELL, Kentucky

FORT MITCHELL, Kentucky: -- Hillary Clinton has always made known that she wants Bill Clinton to have some kind of role in the White House should she become president, but over the past few weeks she's begun to reveal more about what exactly that would be.

During a campaign event in Fort Mitchell today, the Democratic presidential candidate was more blunt than ever about what her husband's role could be in a future Clinton administration — saying she plans to to put the former president "in charge of economic revitalization."

"My husband, who I'm going to put in charge of revitalizing the economy, cause you know he knows how to do it," Clinton told the crowd at an outdoor organizing rally. "And especially in places like coal country and inner cities and other parts of our country that have really been left out."

I hope he has Newt Gingrich on speed dial so Newt can do the brain work.

Remember he was the start of the economic disaster!

Well, there really are no words. Did she really tell voters to elect her because her husband knew how to do the job? I think senility is slowly setting in, and just in time for the FBI interview.

I guess that Bill's appearance fee just went up 1000%

Bill Clinton Would Be 'In Charge of Revitalizing the Economy,' Hillary Clinton Says

Watcha talkin bout Willis.

Ah just like the Bushes, lets keep it in family..and one wonders which position their dear daughter will be appointed to ? Sec of State one suspects...taking lessons off North Korea it seems

So the fox will be guarding the hen house. While it was the Regan regime that set American on the road to ruin, it was Bill Clinton that enabled it. "Clinton had five major achievements as president: NAFTA, the Crime Bill of 1994, welfare reform, the deregulation of banks and telecoms, and the balanced budget. All of them -- every single one -- were longstanding Republican objectives." http://www.truth-out.org/news/item/36035-thomas-frank-bill-clinton-s-five-major-achievements-were-longstanding-gop-objectives

"And especially in places like coal country and inner cities and other parts of our country that have really been left out."

That matches up nicely with "...we're going to put a lot of coal miners out of work..."

When is he going to have time to help the economy of anybody other than underage gals off on junkets via the Lolita Express?

Good. People of a certain age know the facts, that Bill Clinton performed remarkably well on economic issues. Trump's low information followers long for the good old days of Henry Ford style fascist isolationism, minorities under the thumb of white men ... the real good old days are the ECONOMY under Bill Clinton.

Many American friends and colleagues told me the reason Bill Clinton got off when caught lying to the American people was because the economy was o k at the time. He could be forgiven for lying about Monica but would have been crucified if the economy was crap at the time.

However, something distasteful about a country that considers itself god fearing, whatever sect you like to be, moral, ethical and like lecturing other countries, electing a known liar as President, who will appoint her husband, also a known liar, to a key position in her administration. Both are in the pocket of Wall Street; both are mercenary. Dubious at best.

That's not suggesting the opposition is a wonderful choice either. Welcome America to the sort of choices we in Europe have had to put up with for years - who is the least worst rather than the best!

Sure it's unconventional for a first man to take such an active role.

But welcome to lots of firsts.

Our first woman president.

Possibly our first woman vice president (Elizabeth Warren).

Our first first man.

Our first first lady or man who was previously a very successful TWO TERM president.

That sure beats the threat of our first psychopathic fascist demagogue with ZERO political office or governing experience.

Remember he was the start of the economic disaster!

He handed over to Bush January 2001.

And....his antics without him being able to keep it zipped up are grear fun!!!!

Remember he was the start of the economic disaster!

Not quite. The big economic debate in Bush vs. Gore 2000 was how to spend the budget surplus left by 8 years of Clinton.

God, I hope that when they are traveling they make telephone calls. Emails seem to be a little too contentious.

Didn't know a tag-team was going to be installed.

I thought he already got the "job" in the White office.

Monica blew his chances, though.

Considering the Clinton's drug background maybe he and she should legalize coke and that would be a tremendous economic boost.

The budget surplus claimed by Bill Clinton was nothing but an accounting trick, which pushed current expenditures off into later years, after he was out of office.

""And especially in places like coal country "

Coal country needs to be put to sleep along with the rest of the fossil fuel industry.

They are killing us all for the sake of easy profits,

and their corporations own Clinton.and many other law makers.and government officials...

While they avoid paying their fair share of taxes!

The same unskilled labor could be employed in the alternative power industry that is capable of supplying all of our power needs without producing poison.

This is what we get when we allow corporations to buy our lawmakers.

Feel The Bern !

" electing a known liar as President,"

That is the goal of both parties.

Trump is no more honest than Clinton.

The big difference is that Trump doesn't know enough about how the government functions to even realize he lies are only fantasies.

Even the pentagon has stated that if Trump becoms Comander and Chiet, the pentagon would be obligated by the constitution to disobey him if he tries to do what he claims he will do.

Both candidates are very dishonest.

One just has more experience in and knowledge of government than the other.

If a third candidate is not elected, the country and the world are in for a world of hurt.

If the majority of Americans elect either of these two, they will get what they deserve and regret it....

Regret it along with many other people of the world.

Remember he was the start of the economic disaster!

Actually the US economy did great during Clinton's time in office.

So the fox will be guarding the hen house. While it was the Regan regime that set American on the road to ruin, it was Bill Clinton that enabled it.

Having "objectives" is very easy. Actually manifesting them? Now, that the hard part.

Remember he was the start of the economic disaster!

Not quite. The big economic debate in Bush vs. Gore 2000 was how to spend the budget surplus left by 8 years of Clinton.

And we have to give GW Bush credit.

He came up with ways to spend that surplus and trillions more!

Starting wars that did not need to be fought, and putting them on the credit card,

Putting the country in a position where the had to bail out all the major financial institutions.

Our great grandchildren will be paying for he creativity.

The man is a genius!

Bill is well loved. This makes political sense. I am surprised by it though.

Bill Clinton Would Be 'In Charge of Revitalizing the Economy,' Hillary Clinton Says.....

Well blow me......down!

Remember he was the start of the economic disaster!

Jesus, you really have no idea of research, do you? The US recession started in 2002-2003, but sure, he was the start.

Remember he was the start of the economic disaster!

You think he did a bad job with the economy when he was at the helm? Why?
