Friday, November 16, 2007 - In hour two of his nationally syndicated radio program, Outside the Wire host Bob Parks interviewed John Hawkins, editor of RightWingNews.com, on his article, Does Marrying Bill Clinton Qualify Someone to Be President?
The interview is available here.
If a CEO of a fortune 500 company were to retire, would anyone seriously consider his wife to be an adequate replacement simply because she was married to him when he ran the company? What about a Super Bowl winning football team? What do you think the reaction of their fans would be if their coach’s wife was being seriously discussed as his replacement?
It sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it? Yet, Hillary Clinton has practically been anointed by the press and the punditocracy as our next President, despite the fact that her run at the presidency is almost entirely based on being Bill Clinton’s wife.
By that, I mean that if Bill Clinton had meant the sweet nothings that he whispered in Monica Lewinsky’s ear and he had divorced Hillary and married Monica, today Monica would be planning her Senate reelection campaign while Hillary would probably be working as a lobbyist for the Chinese toy manufacturers association.
Later, Bob discusses Media Matters for America’s recent article, Some debate “don’ts” for CNN’s Blitzer, Malveaux, Roberts, and Brown.
In the second half of this hour, Bob is joined by CNS staff writer Randy Hall on “Clinton Fatigue” and the 2008 U.S. Presidential campaign.
