BILL CLINTON ON THE VIEW: "Hillary Never Wanted To Be VP"



Bill Clinton took a seat on the couch with the ladies of ABC’s The View on Monday for the first time. When asked whether his wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, wanted to join Dem. presidential nominee Barack Obama on the Democratic ticket, the former president replied, “Not really, she didn’t.”

She said that if he asked, I’ll do it because it’s my duty. She loves being a senator for New York and has more freedom to develop her positions on the issues and her things,” he said. He added that while Sen. Joe Biden was a “good choice” to be Obama’s running mate, Sen. Clinton “would have been the best politically”.

Clinton said he’d be surprised if Obama didn’t win, but also spoke admirably of Republican presidential nominee John McCain.

CHRIS ROCK RESPONDS TO CLINTONFollowing his appearance on The View, Bill Clinton visited The Late Show With David Letterman. Fellow guest, actor/comedian Chris Rock remarked, “Boy, is it me or he didn’t want to say the name Barack Obama?” Hilarity ensued.
