Why Bill Clinton Is the Least-Deserving Honorary Black Person, Explained

"He may have seemed like our cool, white BFF, but at the end of the day, he’s just another white politician doing what white politicians do."

Why is Bill Clinton in the news today?

Bill Clinton is a white man who happened to be president of the United States from 1992 to 2000. His wife, Hillary, a white woman, is running for president now. Clinton was a popular president and still remains very popular with quite a few people. Naturally, his wife would seem to want to take advantage of that, so he’s done some work on her behalf. On Thursday, while delivering a talk to “help” his wife’s campaign, he was interrupted by some Black Lives Matter protesters who demanded Clinton address his infamous crime bill; generally regarded today as one of the main culprits behind the disproportionate imprisonment of black Americans. (And also a bill recently denounced by his wife.)

Clinton replied by shouting down the protesters, circling the “superpredator” wagons and spouting some gobbledygook about how African black lives matter too. It was so bad it felt intentionally bad. Like an NBA team losing games on purpose to have a better chance in the draft lottery. Or going to a performance-art installation called “Whiting While White” at a gallery crawl.

You put help in quotations earlier. Is there any particular reason why?

Well, a not-so-far-fetched explanation for Bubba’s meltdown is that, subconsciously, he actually doesn’t want his wife to be president. "

1. Pander Bear's lost his touch (and/or mind).

Early onset of dementia is not a pretty sight. He forgot that his wife still badly needs black voters in NY (and California).

As he so often seems to forget about his wife...
