18. Maddie thats the problem though...
First let me state that I respect your positions and opinion, and I'm not trying to change your mind at all. I'm simply pointing out what many people see here.


She's taking Bills experience as her own. If she were running SOLELY on what she did or didn't do that would be different. However she's running on the "two for one" ideal.

Quote
"Both Clintons are making the case that theirs was a co-presidency -- an echo of Bill Clinton's controversial statement during the 1992 campaign that voters would get "two for the price of one" if they elected him. At times, the former president has seemed to cast the current race as a referendum on his administration.

"Bill has merged with his wife totally now, talking about “we” and “us.” “I never did anything major without discussing it with her,” he told a crowd here. “We’ve been having this conversation since we first met in 1971, and I don’t think we’ll stop now.” He suggested as First Lad that “I can help to sell the domestic program.”

She can't have it both ways Maddie, Either she was a co-president and can run on the experience she's claiming...

Or she was NOT co-president, and can NOT run on the experience she's claiming.

She can NOT cherry pick and only claim the good- the bad comes along with it, this perception was her own doing...no one elses.
