I find it humorous that a candidate trying to project an image of a strong woman needs her husband to help her beat Bernie Sanders. If she can't beat Bernie Sanders on her own how is she going to win the General Election. Bill Clinton starts to campaign for her this week.

You can't have it both ways, Hillary.

If you have The Big Dog, you use him. He is the most popular living former President, and he is especially popular with Democrats.

They've always been a political team. That's why he married her: to talk to her about politics. The "Big Dog" is the most effective communicator I've ever seen. Reagan was great but he always sounded like he was reading a script. Bill writes the script as he goes along. He can sell sand to an Arab.

Yay! I can agree with you on that!

But a Dog.

do you think the same thing when the other candidates bring out their spouses? Bill just happens to have some experience behind him besides being a model like Melania

Whether we like it or not, Clinton is the best President the country has had since Reagan. Compare his popularity to that of George W. Bush, who was banned from appearing at the RNC in 2012 and most recently, discouraged from campaigning with brother JEB!.

It's common for candidates to utilize their family when campaigning. Sometimes it's adult children, other times it's siblings or spouses.

Hillary will have Bill campaigning for her for the same reason Obama had Bill campaigning for him. Because Bill is a powerful resource. Surely you must realize that many candidates seek out other political figures who are influential to campaign for them.

I always thought you were rather politically astute. Do you seriously need this explained to you?
