BOGO

For the moment let us imagine that Hellery Clinton runs and wins the presidency this November. Suddenly we have two Presidents in the White House ... Hellery and Slick Willie ... in other words buy one, get one [free] (BOGO) as depressing as this thought might be. The Wall Street Journal has a short piece discussing the implications of this novel circumstance HERE. This article calls this situation a duopoly and raises interesting problems that it might present. However one issue that this article doesn't cover is that Hellery recently publicly stated that, if elected, she would put Bill in charge of fixing our economy ... see: CNN Article and Video ... because "he knows how to do it." To me this is another major gaff on her part ... even bigger than her vow to put coal miners out of work.

This promise is wrong on so many levels:

First, as President it would be Hellery's responsibility to revitalize our economy which is the number one concern on most voters minds. Is she saying that voters, who would vote for her, are really voting for him? Does she intend to be a no-show President like she was as Secretary of State and Senator? This is more than this notion of "two for one" so often mentioned. It may be yet another Clintonesque way of getting around the letter of the law ... in this case the 22nd Amendment?

Secondly, this sounds very much like Hellery is dissing Obummer's stewardship of our economy over his two administrations. And since she is running as an extension to Obummer's presidency, she has just created a serious zigzag in this continuity.

Thirdly, if Hellery is to cede this responsibility to Bill, is this not an indication of her inadequacy to lead our country as its first female president? If Bubba screws things up, will Hellery expect to get a Mulligan from the American voters?

And lastly, Bill Clinton, in his recent public appearances, is clearly losing his mojo. If he sinks further into lala land, who then will carry this economic growth torch (or maybe cigar) in the White House?

If Hellery wins the next election, will both she and William Jefferson put their hands on the Bible next Juanary to take the oath of office?
