Bill Clinton: Obama est son héritier



Bill Clinton est toujours une véritable vedette chez les démocrates et son discours était très attendu. Si on se posait des question sur ce que l'ancien Président allait mentionner dans son discours, on peut sans l'ombre d'un doute affirmer qu'il s'est livré à une défense passionné de la performance économique de Barack Obama. Après Michelle Obama hier qui a livré un "sans faute", on s'attend à retombées importantes de la performance de Bill Clinton. Il ne reste plus qu'a voir et entendre ce soir la performance de Barack Obama.

 "Mitt Romney has tried to position himself as Clinton’s heir in recent months, employing a false claim that Obama gutted Clinton’s signature welfare reform bill, comparing the two presidents on jobs and claiming he’d follow Clinton’s lead in working with the other party.

 Clinton made clear that there was only one candidate in the race who embodied his values.

 “If you want a future of shared prosperity, where the middle class is growing and poverty is declining, where the American dream is alive and well and where the United States maintains its leadership as a force for peace, and justice, and prosperity, in this highly competitive world, you have to vote for Barack Obama,” he said.

 Clinton’s speech was a long one — over 40 minutes and close to 6,000 words long — and the former president frequently departed from his prepared remarks. But the audience hung on every word, cheering on every key line right on cue.

 His remarks took dead aim at the heart of Romney’s campaign theme: that whatever bad hand Obama was dealt in 2009, today’s unemployment figures belong to him. Romney’s case, Clinton said: “We left a mess. He has not cleaned it up fast enough, so put us back in.”

 He compared Obama’s circumstances to his own after he inherited an economy struck by recession in 1993 then suffered huge losses in the midterm elections as the recovery progressed "
