Bill Clinton: Obama is not a change-maker, Hillary would be

America doesn't have a "president that's a change-maker," according to a clip of former president Bill Clinton that aired on MSNBC.

The footage of a Tennessee event broadcast Friday night showed the former president talking about his wife, Hillary Clinton, as being "the best change-maker I've ever known."

"She's always making something good happen," he said of President Barack Obama's former secretary of state, who is running for the Democratic nomination. "A lot of people say you don't understand it's rigged now. Yeah, it's rigged now because you don't have a president that's a change-maker."

Bill Clinton spokesman Angel Urena disputed MSBC's portrayal of the former president's words, saying the report was "inaccurate," adding that Clinton was "attributing his comment to the naysayers."

He cheated on her multiple times. STFU Bill. The two of you better work on Chelsea's run in 8 years and forget about Hillary.

If she actually planned on going into politics, she would have gotten a law degree.
