Kingstree, S.C. – Speaking to a crowd at
the Williamsburg County Recreation Center
, Bill Clinton just now offered an olive branch:
The promise comes after a week of bitter exchanges between the former president and the Obama campaign. “After all the mean things they said about me, I can’t believe I’m saying this,” Clinton said.
Clinton was responding to an audience member’s question–well, more like a statement–about how “black America is voting for Obama” even though “America is not ready for a black president.” “I hope you’re wrong about that,” Clinton said, adding that he thinks Hillary is the best candidate for reasons other than gender or race.
