The picture is from last year’s birthday bash, so I hope something pops up from this year. This report is a little odd.
Published: Sept. 5, 2011 at 1:36 PMMARTHA’S VINEYARD, Mass., Sept. 5 (UPI) — Former U.S. President Bill Clinton celebrated his 65th birthday with friends and family on Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts.
SNIP
Clinton’s wife, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton also was there. Others feting the ex-president, who turned 65 on Aug. 19, included Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie and his wife Christina, “Bourne Identity” producer Doug Liman and the world’s richest human, Carlos Slim.
Well, first and foremost Happy Birthday to all! Secondly, that last paragraph! Really? Hillary was also there? What a surprise! I am flabbergasted! I have never heard of Carlos Slim, but this proves me right about Bill hanging with big money.
They don’t call bill the big dawg for nothing.

Carlos Slim is a mexican business man named by Forbes as the richest man in the world, he owns most of latin america telephone sytems! Hillary was there and I hope Lynn Rochester showed her, her facebook page where a lot of people is talking about Hillary for president!

So Carlos can’t contribute to a Hillary campaign. 😦 I am sure Lynn told Hillary all about everything. I do not link the Run Hillary series there – only the other Hillary posts because Lynn didn’t think it was a good idea to put the “buyer’s remorse” articles up there. It’s OK, I am sure Hillary knows about those articles. If other people make comments there about Hillary running, all the better. Since I’m an admin there, I want to respect Lynn’s wishes.

Carlos can’t contribute to a Hillary campaign, but perhaps he has American friends and business associates who can.

Well, they aren’t seen together very much so it might seem like news to some people, though even I think that assuming she wouldn’t be around for his birthday party is a bit too cynical. Slim, Rothschild, the owner of the Eagles, the Clintons – big money partying with other big money. *yawn* That doesn’t strike me as newsworthy either to tell you the truth.

Maybe they thought she would still be in Paris.

I’m more of a publicity person than a funding person. Everybody has a role to play. Obviously mine is not in the fund-raising area.

I wish everybody, or everybody who wanted one, had a role to play, but that’s not the way things work. You need money and/or connections to play a role in elections. Without those your just some nameless pleb who’s only good for envelope stuffing. Thanks a bunch, Citizens United!

Maybe the CGI will give a hint to what Secretary Clinton’s post-State plans are.

I think that they pointed out that Hillary was there because initial reports had said that she wouldn’t be going to the Vineyard due to her trip to France. Obviously she was able to make it back in enough time to attend Bill’s bash. I’m glad that they had a couple of days together before their vacation was over.
