From an upcoming book on Obama’s campaign for President by former Newsweek reporter Richard Wolffe:
His wife is now Obama’s secretary of state, but Obama had some tough words for the actions of former President Bill Clinton during the campaign.
“We had to figure out how to deal with a former president who was just lying, engaging in bald-faced lies,” Obama explained to Wolffe.
And now we have to figure out how to – without being accused of racism – deal with a current President who is engaging in bald-faced lies himself.
Here’s a detailed excerpt from the book on the internal debate on whether or not to pick Hillary Clinton for Sec. of State.
