Surrogate-in-chief Clinton lends big hand for Obama

‘The secretary of explaining stuff ’ hits stage in N.H.

For Democratic political junkies, Sunday morning’s event in Concord, N.H., will provide a rare moment — two presidents of the United States, Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, speaking on the same stage. It’s like a rock ’n’ roll fan attending a Beatles concert, with the Rolling Stones as the opening act.

Of all the non-family surrogates in this presidential campaign, perhaps none has worked as effectively for either candidate as Clinton. At age 66, he has been soldiering through three and sometimes four enthusiastic stump speeches a day on behalf of a man with whom he has a political history so complicated it would be hard to imagine were it not true.

The prostitute in chief. Four years ago he had nothing good to say about Obama, but now he's trying to lay the foundations for Hilary's 2016 run. 

One might suspect such a flawed, dishonest man of cynical manipulation. 

Did the former president (for whom I voted two times) remember to pack his Viagara for his trip to NH?

What will Bill say when Hillary Clinton is called to testify under u nder oath that she flat out LIED to the American people when she told Charles Woods, the American people, to the United Nations (Barack Obama's speech) and Pakistan TV that a disgraceful VIDEO was the cause of the Bebghazi, Libya embassy atack that muredered 4 Americans?..Both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton should be sent to Jail for their egregious COVERUP of the events. ..And Bill Clinton keeps extolling Obama's foreign policy "Experience"...Here's national columnist Colonel Ralph Peters description of barack Obama's record of Commander in Chief with regard to Russia, China, Itan, israel, Libya, Egypt, Pakistan, Afganistan, Iraq, latin America, Europe, al Qaeda, and last but not least, Benghazi, Libya..."The World Wide Triumph of Failure".........http://bostonherald.com/news/opinion/op_ed/view.bg?articleid=1061172198&format=text ..........Boston Globe of course would NEVER print this article.
