If anybody ever dares to compare Bob Dole to Clinton, then they’re comparing a criminal to an honest man.
When Bill Clinton was in town, he sent over a balanced budget.

In everything I do, I like to set the idea for girls that they can do anything. I was really moved by Hillary Clinton’s speech when she lost the election – she didn’t want young girls to feel like it wasn’t possible and wanted them to know a female president will eventually happen. That’s important.
Hillary Clinton, who followed her heart to Arkansas, understands that the American Dream extends beyond the Mason-Dixon line and that South Carolina’s motto, ‘While I breathe, I hope,’ applies to all.
What the 1990s taught the Clinton veterans was that you could ‘triangulate’ with a GOP-controlled Congress.
As a child, I sat in the back of the bus. I was told, time and time again, that God’s potential didn’t exist in people like me. I’ve spent my life fighting to change that. And, from the first day when I met Hillary Clinton, I’ve known that she’s someone who cares just as much and fights just as hard.
Clinton is a big personality who has led a big life, and for some of the media conventional wisdom to boil it down to a view that ‘all people are really interested in’ are a few moments of madness in the Oval Office gets him, the importance of the presidency, and the significance of his life, all wrong.
Since Obama has expressed admiration for the portrait of Abraham Lincoln that Doris Kearns Goodwin paints in ‘Team of Rivals,’ he could do the 16th president one better: He should name Hillary Clinton as his running mate in 2012. That would be both needed change and audacious.
In Honduras, in particular, Hillary Clinton as Obama’s secretary of state was instrumental in legitimizing the coup’s subsequent death-squad regime.
Every Southerner, I think, knows people like Bill Clinton, maybe not quite as smart and maybe not quite as liberal, but kind of a glad-handing, country-club yuppie Southerner. The problem is we don’t have labels for middle-class Southerners.
I’ve met a handful of presidents, from Jimmy Carter to Bill Clinton to George Bush to Barack Obama.
Bill Clinton is a person who causes a lot of passion both ways about people, and there’s certainly a lot of turmoil if you look back at the eight years. But there was a lot of good, too.

Bill Clinton left office with a more than 60% approval rating.
If ‘Mystery Train’ is my Nixon book and ‘Lipstick Traces’ my Reagan book, ‘Invisible Republic’ is my Bill Clinton book. I really liked Clinton. He made me proud to be part of this country again. For all of his failings, the way he put all that he’d done in jeopardy, I supported him from beginning to end.
In an age when stagecraft, gauzy themes, and sound-bites have too often been substituted for leadership, Bill Clinton as a candidate made it essential to campaigning to take the specifics of governance seriously. Practical solutions were ‘in;’ ideology was ‘out.’
The pact creating a North American free-trade zone was President Bill Clinton’s signature accomplishment; but NAFTA is also the bugaboo of union leaders, grassroots activists and Midwesterners who blame free trade for the factory closings they see in their hometowns.

I looked at the race, and I said, ‘Look. Hillary Clinton is going to be hard to beat.’ Another bad prediction on my part, because she’s turned out a lot weaker than I thought.

In the ’90s, I think that Bill Clinton would have won in Puerto Rico. I think in the 2000s, George Bush would have won in Puerto Rico.
I’ve never been a Clinton fan. He’s had some accomplishments, and he’s very skilled at politics, but, you know, he’s had some successes and a very good economy. And the question is how much or how little of that does he deserve credit for.
Bill Clinton told me that when he was 14, he shook John Kennedy’s hand, and that inspired him to be president.

When my brother-in-law, BIll Clinton, was elected, he had gay friends. That was a coming out.
Bill Clinton is the greatest president of my lifetime. Period.
Hillary Clinton lies about Benghazi, she lied about emails, she is still defending Planned Parenthood, and she is still her party’s frontrunner.
I think if Hillary Clinton had come on ‘Fox & Friends,’ she would have gotten so many more votes, especially if she had done it over and over and over.
For me, being with Obama or having dinner with Bill Clinton… it’s crazy. It’s mind-blowing, because where I come from is just another world. We were just ignored by politicians – by America in general.

The Obama administration’s zeal to not ‘waste a good crisis,’ as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton put it, has been stunning even for Washington insiders to behold.
Hillary Clinton is not that fascinating a person. According to those who have spent time with her, she’s harsh and demanding. According to those who haven’t – like her husband – she’s a delight.
I think it has sullied his presidency. As brilliant a politician as Bill Clinton is, as magnetic a personality as he can be, there is one little screw loose somewhere.
Donald Trump is already losing badly to Hillary Clinton. He is a weak candidate, and he’s performing that way.
