More forcible manipulation
Personally I think that is a bit of a strength.
The list that I posted clearly shows a pattern of just that, forcible manipulation to obtain political goals
Bill had a lot of political baggage when he came to the White house and most of his political problems in his second term were his own doing. Nothing
is above politics in the US including politically motivated prosecutions. I don't want to go off topic so that is all I am going to say on the
matter.
If we are going to discuss ANYONES character, in regards to their ACTIONS, their past performance comes into play, this is true here as well as
any thread
That is true but you actually have to think about the matter at hand.
In this for example I don't see how Bill personal flaws influence the situation and as for the likes of the number of " I don't recalls " well
that is fairly standard in politics across the board. I'm not defending Bill here Instead I am saying that what is made out to be expectational bad
is the norm.
Just because they are the Clinton's they don't get a pass
Well I don't give any political leaders a free pass.
I find it hard to asses Bill presidency . Bill is public enemy number one in Republican eyes and a great president in the eyes of the American left.
Usually I just split the difference.
Simple and straightforward
You should know that nothing simple and straightforward in politics.
