Hoping for a woman in White House
Print Edition
Bill Clinton hopes there will be a woman in charge in the White House in his lifetime.
His wife Hillary has not yet said whether she plans another presidential run after her failed 2008 bid for the Democratic nomination.
“I hope we have a woman president in my lifetime, and I think it would be a good thing for the world as well as for America,” Clinton said at a conference in Beijing organized by Chinese financial magazine Caijing.
“But I do not know if she’s going to run, and there is no such thing as a sure thing in politics,” he added.
Asked whether he envisages becoming a “first husband,” he replied: “You know, if I knew the answer to that, I couldn’t say. But I can give you an honest answer: I have no idea.”
He called his wife “the ablest public servant I have ever worked with” and said he would support her whatever decision she made on a White House run. “But if she decides for whatever reason she doesn’t, I will support that,” he added.
“It’s very interesting for us; we still feel young and we still feel healthy,” he added, noting that compared with several decades ago, he believes his wife now is “less motivated by a fear of failure.”
