Bill Clinton critical of Pres. Obama: "not a change maker."

http://nypost.com/2016/02/14/bill-clinton-downplays-obama-were-all-mixed-race-people/

“A lot of people say you don’t understand — it’s rigged now,” he said. “Yeah, it’s rigged now because you don’t have a president that’s a change-maker.”


What a shitty thing to say. He's blaming President Obama for a rigged system that he himself helped rig. That's a new low for him.


EDIT: Full quote: "Yeah, it’s rigged because you don’t have a president who is a change maker with a Congress who will work with him. But the president has done a better job than he has gotten credit for." Form your own opinion.

He's great - we love him - bernie hates him - he's not a change maker - we'll do more - I invented his health care - he's not hawkish enough ...

always trying to be all things to all people... you can't pin them down
