Here is bill clinton on the campaign trail. [video clip] what does it mean to be an american in the 21st century . It is profound. That is the reason all these Republican Newspapers and National Security people, many of whom probably disagree with her on her economic plans and her specific social policy say nonetheless, she loves this capable ofd she is being commander in chief. We do have to have an economy that works for everybody. [applause] lots of calls coming in now on the role of the candidate spouses, to the influence your vote . Paul is our first color from wisconsin, a democratic collar. Wisconsin,ller from a democratic caller. With Hillary Clinton youre getting 241. In the 1990s bill clinton was probably the best president we have seen. That is why republicans are so jealous of him. All those investigations never went anywhere. I will tell you what, all this stuff about hillarys emails, what a smokescreen. He said the other day what is trumps message . That i hate all the same people you guys hate. That pretty much sums it up. Host you said to for the price of one which is something we heard 20 years ago as well in reverse. What would you expect clintons role to be of she becomes president . Caller advice with global affairs, and everything else. If there is a big, something unexpected she could go to bill, instead of blowing up the world they can talk about an figure out what is going on. He is a very smart person, a very levelheaded person. I dont think youll get that with Melania Trump. Host thank you for calling. Lets hear from lily now on the republican line. What do you think . That doesntnk reflect on the candidates for stomach kind of their ideas and where they stand the candidates. It kind of shows where they stand. Host what did you learn from the lumia from bill clinton in this campaign Melania Trump or bill clinton on this campaign . Yesterday, i think she was stating more about Cyber Bullying against children. It, she wasoing more concerned about ad children doing it. Closerlay Pay Attention to that. Bill clinton come out rather not comment. All right, lets take a call from tom on the independent line in South Carolina. Go ahead. Caller i just finished melanias speech earlier before hillarys. I thought you gave a wonderful speech and would be a good first lady. Host what did you hear from her specifically . Caller everything, she, her afterward, it listened to the opposition. Not pushing he is bigotry. He wants to build a strong country for everybody. As far as bullying in the schools and every thing like the she concentrated on 12yearold example because a lot of that goes on. That keepsreat, and them from developing themselves. That is important. I disagree with the people that oppose her saying you have to watch her. You have to listen to what she says because she is a wonderful woman and knows what shes talking about. Host thank you for calling post a lets go to bob in new mexico, democratic caller. Go ahead, bob. Personally think what Melania Trump said is ridiculous talking about bullying. She obviously hasnt seen her husbands twitter account. Anyway, what i look for in a first lady is one, she has to support good causes. Host lets move on to some hopefully some more substantive phone calls on this friday morning. A lot of you trump, little bit more from pennsylvania now. Melania trump, a little bit more from pennsylvania now. [video clip] we have to find a way to talk to each other, and respect each other. We must find a better ways to honor and support the basic good this of our children, especially in social media. It should be one of the main focuses of my work if i am privileged enough to become your first lady. [applause] i will also work hard to improve everyday lives for women. The women in america, incredible. They are strong, intelligent, generous, committed, determined. The opportunities we will advance and achieve. But some women have been left behind. I see that. We cannot call ourselves a fully developed or advanced nation when 50 of our women live in poverty. When 60 million are without Health Insurance, when too many are choosing between basic needs like rent, food, and health care. This cannot be. We cannot afford to have more of the same. We must break with the failures of the past, and embrace a feature that is worthy of this great nation and her beautiful people. [applause] host more of your calls in a moment. Back to the Washington Post these. The candidates wife decries mean says somey jordan supporters listening were critical of the crude language her husband has used including calling women ms. Piggy and dogs. It bothers me, says victoria, noting that poll; show the nominee is trailing with womens and his wife offered a refreshingly different approach. Carefully considered and talking about children and kindness. Only now getting to hear from melania. Why didnt he send her out earlier . Also in the post, other women found it ironic that melania champion ending bullying on the internet. What about the tone and voice he uses . He does people to shut up, and s ays about a woman she is ms. Piggy. Ont from a Woman Working local voter turnout. The race is close in Chester County where mitt romney eked out a win by us than 1 . Caller i do believe the candidates familys influence the vote. It influences my vote. On the one hand, there was an educated family who even collaborates, which is significant enough with the campaign and the husband and wife. They all collaborate for stuff on the other hand, you have people and family members that are plagiarizing and using scripted language that the campaign has written and didnt bother to understand the significance of questioning the validity of the language. Barely understand this person. That is not typically a problem for me in my daytoday life. I just felt that it is hypocritical when one side is saying the other lies, and they are using plagiarized words and scripted information. They are run by their own lies. I woulder to me is yes, choose education over noneducated. Host all right, lets hear from lori now in california, a democratic caller. Caller good morning, i havent been sleeping. Host sorry to hear that. Caller it really worries me if trump gets in the white house because i believe it will be like having it learned the white house. House. Er and the white host why do you say that . Caller because of how he treats people. He doesnt think he can do any wrong. They said he was a psychopath. Anyway, Melania Trump, i think she is a nice lady and everything, but her speech was totally red of the teleprompters yesterday. I mean, all of it was read. It was written for her. That is probably because she was scared of giving a speech because she hadnt given one before. I can understand that. But, i am not a real big hillary fan. It just, trump is a dangerous man. I dont want to see him in the white house. Host all right, angelie compares the spouses to the candidates themselves. She said she lowered her and who is the Nuclear Launch codes not to can get the most kids in shape. Theie writes that sways votedont right now so why would the spouses . Caller good morning, i believe that spouses to influence my vote because i was thinking a bout changing and going to hillary. If anybody in the whole thing actually change my vote it would be bill. Was president he was supposed to be the biggest role model we ever had. Look at his sex scandal when he was in the presidency. And hillary didnt even divorce them. Have divorced them as soon as she found out. I think the clintons shouldnt be bringing up things about trumps womanizing and everything, bill did the most worst thing when he was president. Host now hampton, georgia now on the democrats line. Oneer my call is that no spouse influences a voters choice. What it tells me when i look at is a veryhe attractive person. I think she is a lot you want to say and do. You can tell when a woman sort of fears her mate. She fears her mate. I saw that when she was doing the interview the other day when donald trump told her she is going to be interviewed. She looked shocked and surprised. For us christians and evangelists, we should remember that. I admire hillary but also am sad for her. She tolerated but most women wouldnt tolerate, cheating with their spouses. At this point, it has been over 20 years since i was divorced. To this day, i would shy hadnt for the sake of my children. Somehow, relationships in the white house send a message to all of us. At this point, i am for the sake of myself, even im a democrat all my life. Duringot vote democrat the primaries. So, spouses do influence that. My main issue with spouses is that they have great causes. Laura bush, barbara bush was my role model. Whenhappens at the end, they leave office, none of these things get carried forth. That is the issue i have with spouses. Melania makes a great point with Cyber Bullying because it exists and hurts our children. I really think that probably once this election, if they get into the white house, she will make a great person and great spokesperson for it. Will it carry on . Will it help . Michelle was losing weight for children, but will be carried out on . Barbara bush had the reading program. She was everywhere. I have spoken with her. She sat on many, many boards. She was for education. When these things get carried on, that is my Biggest Issue with spouses being in the white house. Host thank you for weighing in and sharing your own situation. The New York Daily News front . ge today, you dont say weuote from mrs. Trump must treat each other with kindness. That overlooks hubbys bullying. D lonnie at the least favorably viewed candidates spouse sends Hillary Clinton. That is the headline, they say. They begin by saying Melania Trump did not sign up with this. She signed up to be the wife of a wealthy celebrity and doesnt seem to have bought much into the life of the t. V. Star. But it doesnt seem that she did that to become the eventual first lady of the United States. Thew poll we asked people four people not of the top of the ticket. Bill clinton was picked up with the bestknown with more than half of the respondents having a favorable view of him. Was slightly better known than either Vice President ial pick but others viewed her more negatively. She is viewed about is positively as negatively, by contrast tim kaine and mike pence have net favorability is plus 1719 and respectively. That is in the Washington Post if you want to read more about that. We have joe from pennsylvania on the independent line. Where is bath exactly . Caller it is by nazareth, and pennsylvania. Host our folks feeling with the campaign there . Is that clinton territory or trump territory . Caller i see tons of trump science but i dont know about that. Is problem we got here people being misguided by the media. He is all over the page. Lania, doing all this stuff. Donald trump had an argument with rosie odonnell. Idnt call all women know he loves women. The man lets talk about deplorable. Lets talk about basement to against catholics and evangelicals. Lets talk about that this morning. Host let me jump in and get to the question itself, how about the candidate spouses . To the influence your vote do they influence your vote . Caller bill clinton, i never cared for him, even when he was in office. They said there was a market coming up with the Computer Industries at that time. Computerseft, the crashed and people were losing 100,000 jobs. He didnt really do much. Women, and it bad things in that office. People need to wake up. The nothing but thieves, worse than the mob. These people dont care about america. Right, lets hear from brenda in houston, texas on the line for democrats. Caller it is been quite a few years since i have spoken with you. Host well im glad you are on. What do you think about the candidates spouses . To the influence your vote . Caller before i answer that i wanted to say this back in 2000 when the election was for george bush, i said to everyone that would listen there someday so catastrophic behind this administration, america will never be able to bounce back. Obama turn give us barack with a sense of humor. Look of the Kelly Whiteside of him try to destroy him. Now they want us to pick this clown, trump. I sit to White America that to america. , woe in answer to your question wow, i wish we had been asking, i wish there was someone we could take this time and put it in the 50s in the 60s. Can you imagine a woman being touted, one that is being put before us who has posed nude for just cannot imagine, who also stole the previous superior first ladys words. Buit nothigng is said. We are twisted and we are sick. Seople should go see sicari program on cnn, when one of the four leaders that even if trump did even if hillary did when, at this point they question the leaders around the world whether or not america is up to the task of leading. People, we better thing. 0 think. A republican caller. Caller i find it ironic how everybody is forgetting what bill clinton did in his time in office. Eorgeality, he brought g bush seniors financials forward. He had an attack on the tower, and three embassies. He had an attack on the uss cole, which he jumped dumped in george bush juniors lap. He had so many awful things happen to him that were just so irresponsible. It just seems like everybody forgets that. How many times did he have a chance to get bin laden . He just passed up because he didnt want a headache. I think people need to look at that. I am absolutely not in favor of trump, no more than i am Hillary Clinton. Terrible mess. A the American People have, and a really think that this is something that we will pay for. Host thank you for calling. More about bill clinton, new republic has this piece and headline goes like this will bill clinton come out of hiding after the election . He was supposed to be one of Hillary Clintons top surrogates, instead he disappeared from the national spotlight. Wontit will last last and the piece says that they tweeted a video earlier touting her most popular surrogates for that that is the setup you we take a look at that piece right now then come back. Can i just say im really into electing Hillary Clinton. This is not me going to the motions here. I really, really, really, want to elect Hillary Clinton. Are going to work our hearts out to make Hillary Clinton the next president of the United States. I cant hear you, are you with me . This is aobama fundamental choice about who we are as a people. Were strongest when we bring our people together. President obama in every state, men and women young and old Bernie Sanders everybody, that is who we are. Theres oneama candidate who devoted her life. Michelle obama who fights every day for us. Ive known hillary a long time. We have talk about what i know what hillary cares about, Immigration Reform student at climate change. The answer is 100 clear. That is on every issue. Hillary clinton is the superior candidate, hands down. Obama i am inspired by her persistence, and her gut, and her lifelong record of public service. No one
