For one thing, one of the wonderful things that we now have is instead of the huge budget surpluses that President Clinton left us with, we now have these huge deficits that we’re going to be facing into the future.
I certainly won’t vote for Hillary Clinton, but I cannot and will not vote for Donald Trump.
I believe that Secretary Clinton has said, has acknowledged, that that was not the best way to handle her emails back then… and has turned over all of the information and the emails and documents and now the server.
Nigel Farage, the leader of the U.K. Independence Party, is a true populist; Senator Bernie Sanders, the former U.S. presidential candidate who campaigned for Hillary Clinton after losing his battle for the Democratic Party’s nomination, is not.
In 1947, the year Clinton was born, there were no women serving in the Senate.
It would be extremely naive to conclude anything other than the following: America’s most vital secrets are in the hands of our adversaries because Secretary Clinton intentionally avoided using official government communication systems.
Americans have less and less patience for the intrusive and divisive moral scolds who thrived in the bubbles of the Clinton and Bush years.
Bill Clinton has done more to help the middle class than any leader in decades.
In 2012, Hillary Clinton’s State Department, acting through its ambassador, Mari Carmen Aponte, threatened to withhold critical development aid unless El Salvador passed a major privatization law.
We got to do a few things with President Clinton. To be invited to Washington again to play with Ashanti and all those other cool people there in front of President Bush and the rest of the world feels awesome. I’m really looking forward to going.
The post-presidency, as Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton have proved, is a win-win. Money, Nobels, the ability to leverage your global celebrity for any cause or hobbyhorse you wish, plus freedom to grab the mike whenever the urge takes you without any terminal repercussions.
When issues emerge that might harm a campaign, like the Clinton e-mails, you have to get all the facts out right away, but not before you have all the facts.
The Clinton tax increase – which was an increase in taxes primarily on upper-income people – not only made the tax code more nearly progressive, it preceded one of the most productive economic periods in American life.
Clinton knew how to get things done. He was battling the Republicans, and then he basically took a lot of their agenda and made it his own. That’s what Obama’s not doing.
My childhood was completely dominated by Bill Clinton and the OJ trial. I don’t think we had a family dinner where one didn’t come up.
The Clinton era is over. I think that there would even have been a certain amount of rejoicing among some Republicans if Gore had won or if Ralph Nader had won or if Satan had won.
If you add up all the promises any politician makes, the math doesn’t work. Hillary Clinton’s math doesn’t work; Donald’s math probably doesn’t work. I think you have to listen to their campaign pitches more as symbolic, more as metaphors.
Don’t forget to vote for Bill Clinton and Al Gore. Stay home if you’re voting for Dole.
Let me let you in on a secret. I do plan to be on the podium with President Clinton when she’s inaugurated in January 2017 – but I’m going to be sitting with the senators.
It wasn’t easy in the 1970s when I initially started on my mission – to take yoga to the world. Nobody knew what it was in Japan. When I met Bill Clinton for the first time, he asked me if it was a form of yogurt that you eat! But I kept my faith and never gave up on my quest.
Gingrich, Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, and Clinton passed legislation because they understood and appreciated the difficult political process. They fought for their principles yet recognized the need for compromise to get anything done.
Hillary Clinton’s not very bright. Everybody says she’s so smart, so much smarter than Donald Trump. She doesn’t really have a grasp. She doesn’t have a grasp on what’s important and what’s not.
The attack on Clinton on terrorism is entirely politically inspired by the right-wing of the Republicans, and has no basis in fact whatsoever.
I believe that any candidate who supports the war should not receive our support. It doesn’t matter if they’re Senator Clinton or whoever.
When it comes to the stage, I can’t help but be inspired by people like George Clinton, Elton John and Alice Cooper.
Even before Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton threw their exploratory committees into the ring, every reporter seemed to be asking, ‘Which candidate are Americans more ready for: a white woman or a black man?’
Let me tell you this, if I had wanted to have a library of audio and videotapes of Bill Clinton, I could have had that. And after I was accused of being a liar, I wished that I had of.
I like debating policy. I never once attacked personally Secretary Clinton. I have found that when I have attacked people personally, that’s been a stupid mistake on my part. And so whoever I have attacked personally, I apologize for.
Hillary Clinton is excoriating Donald Trump over Trump University? The Clinton scandal at Laureate Education, a for-profit education chain of schools and colleges operating world-wide, including the United States, is much worse.
I don’t take anything Hillary Clinton is going to say at all as true. I’m not going to take her on her word.
The love affair between black folks and the Clintons has been going on for a long time. It began back in 1992, when Bill Clinton was running for president. He threw on some shades and played the saxophone on ‘The Arsenio Hall Show.’ It seems silly in retrospect, but many of us fell for that.
I have good relationships with Hillary Clinton, Joseph Biden and especially Richard Holbrooke – he is my teacher. I learned a lot of great things from him.
What I find shocking is that there’s this thought process that Hillary Clinton is going to be president of the United States, and to even think of Donald Trump is a joke.
The Clinton White House today said they would start to give national security and intelligence briefings to George Bush. I don’t know how well this is working out. Today after the first one Bush said, ‘I’ve got one question: What color is the red phone?’
I’ll tell you from my heart, looking at their party further and further to the left, to paraphrase the director of the FBI: I think it would be extremely careless to elect Hillary Clinton.
It is time for Hillary Clinton to permanently retire.
It’s not just Barack Obama, but I doubt Jimmy Carter or Bill Clinton would have made it to the White House without Selma.
Hillary Clinton is a corrupt career politician who has recklessly handled classified information in an attempt to avoid accountability and put American lives at risk, including those of my former colleagues. She fails the basic tests of judgment and ethics any candidate for president must meet.
The differences between Secretary Clinton and Donald Trump in terms of temperament, in terms of values, couldn’t be more stark.
She was very kind to us when Joe and I went through the darkest days of the leak of my name in 2003. And, of course, Joe worked in the Clinton White House.
I’ve met Bill Clinton, Obama a couple of times… I certainly didn’t meet George Bush, and wouldn’t want to.
Hillary Clinton understands that we have to invest in education and jobs for our young people, not more jails or incarceration.
While Donald Trump is busy insulting one group after another, Hillary Clinton understands that our diversity is one of our greatest strengths. Yes. We become stronger when black and white, Latino, Asian-American, Native American – when all of us stand together.
I’m proud to support Secretary Clinton.
Trump crossed the line all the time. Flustered during the debate because he couldn’t out-debate Clinton on policy, he just leaned into the mic and dismissed her entirely: ‘nasty woman.’
Former Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton and President Barack Obama, each were told repeatedly, ‘You can’t win.’ They all won.
I’ve been really privileged to work for two presidents – President Obama and President Clinton – who are both people of faith, who value faith, and who respect that others have the same feelings in their own lives.
It’s hard not to identify with some of what Hillary Clinton is up against.
The best thing going for us is Al Gore. I cannot conceive how the American people could elect him. On the other hand, I couldn’t conceive how they could elect a Jimmy Carter or Bill Clinton – especially Clinton in ’96.
Allegations that President Clinton pardoned Marc Rich partly in return for donations to his presidential library have raised questions about the value of such institutions and the federal appropriations that support them.
In the run-up to the 1992 Democratic convention, Clinton’s campaign realized that voters thought the young governor had a privileged upbringing. They didn’t buy his alleged concern for the middle class.
Men such as President Bill Clinton don’t have trouble showing a warmth which works for him, but women in power seem hesitant to use their feminine charm in a man’s world out of concern for appearing lightweight, manipulative, or needing to use it to make up for something that is lacking.
