Should I bother to see Bill Clinton tomorrow?

[tekisui]

He's coming to my town. Most of what he's said lately has really rubbed me wrong. I am considering going, but may not care to hear what he has to say.

[k8conant]

1. Go hear for yourself and report back to us!

I'd like to hear too.

[tekisui]

2. I probably will, not many chances to see former Presidents.

[jakem]

3. please go-

and offer him some response to their behavior..

[tekisui]

4. I'll take my gong.

[jakem]

12. yes. good plan

bong before, gong after... you will be all set!

:hi:

[Cooley Hurd]

5. I would. He's still an awesome ex-Prez...

:thumbsup:

[tekisui]

9. That's how I'm leaning. Wonder how early I need to go...

[Cooley Hurd]

21. I'd get there early. I saw him a year and a half ago...

...at a rally for Kirsten Gillibrand, and the (aircraft) hangar filled up fast. I was there early and got up front - close enough to shake his hand. Very cool experience!:thumbsup:

[Mezzo]

6. Nah, just blow it off. It's not like he's BHO. nt

[tekisui]

16. I don't know if you're being sarcasitc.

I saw Obama in Columbia, I'd like to see Hillary, but she's not come close enough yet. I will most likely take the opportunity to see Bill.

[kimmerspixelated]

7. Well, if this is a regular hallucination...

I'd change the scenery a bit...like for ...Johnny Depp or George Clooney!!

[billybob537]

8. He's just selling out

I lost all respect for the man.

[msallied]

10. Wear something to protect your shoes

as you might be vomiting on them a few times.

[TomInTib]

11. Ah, what the heck....

If you've nothing better to do, you might as well give it a shot.

The guy does have a charismatic presence that you can feel from a mile away.

But the security will be a pain in the butt.

[krawhitham]

13. Yes

[fascisthunter]

Why Not? Take a Close Look at the Man That Gave Us NAFTA

it should be personal. :P

[PylesMalfunction]

14. I would go

I'm not too happy with him right now myself but I'd still go. There's something about seeing someone in person that helps you decide how you really feel about them.

[DB1]

15. Go, or you will kick yourself later. He was a very good President.

Every time anyone famous comes close to where I live I can't get in to see them. Hope to see Obama, B. Clinton, Carter and Gore before I die.

[tekisui]

20. That's it, I;m going. Early.

[DB1]

48. Glad to hear it. Just don't ask him about 9/11. Ha Ha.

[JanMichael]

17. what time is he going to speak?

I know; weird question.

[tekisui]

22. 8:15 to 9 pm.

How early do you think I should go, 7:15?

[JanMichael]

35. I don't know---

I was just trying to figure out his NC schedule---

We are wondering if we should drive to see him too---

[tekisui]

40. If you do come to Asheville tomorrow, let me know.

[WinkyDink]

18. Don't even think about what he'll say. Think of this: There have been only 43 Presidents.

How many in your lifetime will you get a chance to see?

[tekisui]

25. Yep. I'm going.

[kdpeters]

19. Ask him how that DOMA thing worked out in protecting HIS marriage?

[panader0]

23. Don't you have to wash your hair at that time?

Or take out the trash? Or.........

[SoFlaJet]

24. I still have hope for his soul tekis

who knows maybe after this thing is done we can all get back to loving and defending him again-LIKE WE HAVE ALWAYS DONE---every single one of us here

[Ichingcarpenter]

26. I would

Just for posterity, I've seen Eisenhower, Johnson, Nixon, Carter, Reagan and Clinton.
Hated some and liked some, but at least I can say I saw them.

[Cooley Hurd]

31. When I was 15, I saw Reagan at the local Holiday Inn...

...he, and his entourage passed by me about 5 feet away in a deserted hallway. He looked at me and said, "Well, hello son!" I was like, "eh... what's up?":D

[Shae]

27. Go!!

Just don't come back a Hillary supporter!!
:P

[tekisui]

29. That won't happen.

I will go, and see the former President. Should be a good experience.

[Adelante]

28. Sure, go nt

[Jack Bone]

30. I saw him earlier this week, his speech was good..

not aimed at BO, or anything. More of what we should do as a nation, w/ plugs for Hillary thrown in. What else would you expect?

We got there about an hour early and got in. It was worth the 3 hours (drive time included).

Here's a link to the visit I saw in Logansport, IN

http://www.wishtv.com/global/story.asp?s=8051662

Ours was the 4th one down.

[tekisui]

32. I was thinking an hour early would get me in,.

It's just at a high school, though.

I've not seen it advertised, it is on Hillary's website. I just got a call.

[Jack Bone]

37. what it IS about is getting you signed up for the campaign.

you have to fill out some info to get in, that's your "ticket", then the next day you'll get a call from them asking for help, "where would be a good place to base operations in your city", etc.

I think that's why the President's doing this, to start a foundation for their campaign in your area.

yes, do go. It's worth the effort. Just leave some blanks open on your form, if you don't wish to be bothered later.

[Catherina]

33. Go if you can. Have a question or two ready just in case n/t

[Guava Jelly]

34. I would...

He is a great speaker.

[ecstatic]

36. Go for it! Heckle him, if you can

If he starts to get out of line.

[durrrty libby]

38. Yes they should go and behave like a "typical" obamatized asshole

[tekisui]

45. I would not go to heckle Bill Clinton.

Just so you know. I am going to go, to hear what he has to say, and see a former President who I liked very much as a President.

[tekisui]

42. He is rough on hecklers.

Didn't hit or jab an Obama supporter recently. I know he's shouted them down.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

39. Go, it might be worth the laughs.

Caught a clip of him talking last night. He seemed completely out of touch with reality. He looked drunk, to be perfectly honest.

[noel711]

41. Go! Go! For history if nothing else...

Bubba's been gettin' on my last nerve recently
but he's a past president,
and sometimes he's kinda cute.

And tell us everything!

But you're not allowed to applaud.

[tekisui]

43. No applause.

No returning a Hillary Supporter.

Leave things blank on the recruitment form.

Got it!

[Zynx]

44. Go and ask him polite questions if he opens up the floor.

[Tresalisa]

46. Yes, you should go, and go early!

Even if President Clinton gets there late, as I am given to understand he does sometimes, it would still be waaaaaay cool to be there and with a good place in the crowd! Take pictures if you can, and post 'em here!

:woohoo: :bounce:

[Emit]

47. Yes. I did when he came to visit in January.

And I am glad I did. I posted about it here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=389&topic_id=2675554

[Patsy Stone]

49. Yes

This primary will be over eventually, and his words during this season will be mostly forgotten. Former Presidents don't come to town every day.
