The Real Reason Why Bill Did Not Run in '88

One name - Gennifer Flowers

Remember this?

Remember the 12 year affair he had between 1977 and 1989 behind his wife's back while he was governor of Arkansas?

Remember the denial during the 1992 campaign?

Remember the FULL ADMISSION of this affair during depositions 21 years later.

Look... I'm not a huge moralist and I don't think that our Presidents need to be perfect. Just stop lying.

Everyone knows that Bill Clinton was advised not to run in 1988 because he was a well known womanizer and needed to get his affairs behind him.

NOT - as Bill claimed in his recent interview with Charlie Rose last sunday - that he thought he was 'not ready' to be President. This not so subtle dig at Barack Obama is another shameless attempt to rewrite history by the Clinton Clan.

So... Bill Clinton waited to run. He waited to run to save the country from the torture of a scandal, or to save his own candidacy?

Regardless, it worked well for him. He was elected by a plurality of the vote.

All we got was a paralyzed Presidency because of a woman named Lewinsky, a semen soaked dress, and a bunch of hypocritical senators rambling sanctimoniously about morality for 2+ years.

Is this the kind of soap opera we want again in the oval office?

Not me. And I hope, not the American people.

Look, exactly how much pain Bill Clinton caused his wife and how much damage he did to his wife remain a secret shared by Bill and Hillary. But do we really want that psycho-drama back into the halls of power in this country? Can't we get past this?
Can't we get a President that is not going to drape his/her emotions all over the international stage like some low budget TV series.

Please. Please. Please.
