Bill Clinton: Democrats need a candidate who can implement their ideas


Former President Bill Clinton speaks to a crowd of 450 guests at Northwest Junior High School in Coralville on Friday, Jan. 15, 2016. Clinton held an organizing event to campaign on behalf of his wife, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, with just 17 days left before the Iowa Caucus. (Andy Abeyta/The Gazette)

Jan 15, 2016 at 9:11 pm

CORALVILLE — Nearly 500 people showed up in Coralville Friday night for a Clinton rally. ...............................

Nearby, Moussa Diouf, also of Iowa City, was definitely there to support the former first lady.

“I know her better because she was here eight years ago,” he said. However, he only decided Thursday to support Clinton rather than Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

“Because of her determination,” he explained. “I like people who don’t quit.”

There’s no quit in her, President Clinton said, affirming this sentiment as he recited details of his wife’s biography.

“She’s the single best change-maker I’ve ever met. Not a change-talker,” he said.

The next president needs to be someone to calm down the American people “put Humpty Dumpty back together,” he said..............................

reasons.

Folks want to see the celebrity known as Bill Clinton. Maybe catch a photo or two.

I suspect many who come out for Trump want to see the celebrity in person too.

Doesn't mean I'd vote for the candidate they were touting.
