"Now, one of Clinton's laws of politics is this. If one candidate is trying to scare you and the other one is try get you to think, if one candidate is appealing to your fears and the other one is appealing to your hopes, you better vote for the person who wants you to think and hope."
-Bill Clinton, 2004

Goes to show the lack of Consistency that Bill Clinton has in allocating his thoughts to what applies and is beneficial to him and Hillary at the time.

Judgment is lacking... in the United States government the one I trust on day one is the high road where Obama lives and his consistency is blazing a trail of hope, and diverting all of us from the trail of tears!!!

I am so glad you found this quote I saw the video on You Tube and it was powerful... I wish we could air that on CNN.. Also, here is another thought, remember when Hillary rallied and help Barack fund raise in IL for his senate run... are there some sound bites that would apply to any of her statements regarding Obama that would be to our benefit?

Your sleuthing is admired and appreciated! Keep Digging and lets get the POSITIVE OUT THERE!

Fired up and READY to GO!

That is a powerful quote! It is exactly on point as to why I am supporting Obama! However, it also reminds me of why I previously liked Bill Clinton (and why I do not have the same good feelings about Hillary as a candidate).

Thanks for sharing this great quote.

A Place Called Hope | Report to Admin

By Megan Mar 3rd 2008 at 9:42 am EST

I was in 4th grade in 1992, and much to my parent's disappointment, I was a huge fan of Bill Clinton. I watched a TV special on him that highlighted his childhood. As a nine-year-old little girl, I had found a new hero. I didn't care about his politics, I was just excited to see someone come from so little and make so much of himself. At then end of the TV special, Clinton used the line, "I believe in a place called Hope." I used that line on my parents whenever they brought up the election. I didn't understand the difference between a Republican or a Democrat, but I knew what Hope was. Bill Clinton said he still believed in Hope, and that was all I needed from my President.

I am 24 now, and I still believe in Hope. Bill Clinton is no longer my hero, but I still admire many of the things he did while in office and I am glad that he was our President. However, it makes me sad to see that he no longer believes in a place called Hope.
