Did Bill Clinton make another sneak attack on Sen. Barack Obamas ability to deliver on his promise of change? Clinton says no.
Speaking in Denver on Tuesday at a conference of former heads of state, former President Bill Clinton said the biggest question for political leaders in the next decade will be how to make democracy deliver the goods for the people. How can inequality be reduced? How can national security be enhanced? How can global climate change be averted?
Clinton posed a hypothetical question, which he insisted didnt have anything to do with the current political campaign in the United States. Suppose, he said, you had one candidate that you agreed with 100% on the issues, but you knew couldnt get anything done. And you had another candidate that you agreed with only half the time, but felt would deliver on the other half.
Who would you vote for? Clinton said, making it pretty clear that hed vote for results, not good intentions.
s hard to turn good intentions into positive change, Clinton said Tuesday.
The question mirrored the criticism Clinton levied at Obama throughout this springs primary campaign against Clintons wife, Hillary: Who has the experience to deliver the political promises?
Hillary Clinton will speak at the Democratic National Convention this evening, where shes expected to enthusiastically endorse Barack Obama. Bill Clinton is slated to speak to the delegates Wednesday night, just before a speech by Sen. Joseph Biden, the vice presidential choice.
