Bill Clinton tells a love story as Hillary breaks a glass ceiling, making history
On Tuesday night, Bill Clinton made the case for his wife, the newly minted Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. The former president’s speech at the Democratic National Convention was part grandfatherly musings, part nostalgic love story, part family history, part political memoir and entirely about portraying his wife as trustworthy and authentic, and an agent of change for voters sick of the status quo. He highlighted a lifetime of Hillary Clinton's advocacy, for prison reform, against segregation and for disabled children. He summed up a day of testimonials from people touched and helped by her advocacy — in public and in private.
[Hillary is] insatiably curious, she’s a natural leader, she’s a good organizer, and she’s the best darn change maker I ever met in my entire life.
Bill Clinton
Hillary Clinton addressed the crowd, emerging through an image of shattered glass at the end of a slideshow of portraits of the 43 men the United States has elected president. But she wasn't the only one who broke a glass ceiling on Tuesday when she became the first female nominee of a major party. Should she win on Election Day, her husband will step into a singular role in American history: first gentleman.
[If] there are any little girls out there who stayed up late to watch, let me just say, I may become the first woman president but one of you is next.
Hillary Clinton
