(23,946 posts)Excellent insight, KamaAina!
Of course we know this rare true, so of course con psych-ops knows the same, and counter psych-ops will certainly attempt to stain the legacy.
What a special moment for both of them.

(2,966 posts)This illustrates some important differences between Democratic leaders and Republican leaders of the present day. You'll never - EVER - see a Romney, Cruz, Walker, Carson or Paul doing anything like this. Jeb Bush and Huckabee - MAYBE. But, all ex-Dem prez's become humanitarian activists and continue to build their legacies. Repubs sit back and rest on their "legacies" and their money.

(20,819 posts)that Dubya got from the baby in Germany, who started screaming and crying and Dubya had to hand him back to quiet him. The picture was a real lulu, Bush holding the screaming red-faced baby up high with the same kind of clueless, puzzled but arrogant look on his face that he had when he got lost visiting the Chinese premier and tried to open a locked door. I wish I had the internet and photoshop skills to put those two pictures side by side to contrast them: this one with Clinton with the baby, and the one with Dubya with the screaming baby.
