Obama jokes he should make Clinton ‘Secretary of Explaining Stuff’ [View all]
PORTSMOUTH, New Hampshire — US President Barack Obama joked Friday that he should appoint Bill Clinton as his “Secretary of Explaining Stuff” following his acclaimed speech at the Democratic convention.
Clinton is expected to follow his address, which even some Republicans admitted was a masterful summary of the election arguments and Obama’s presidency, with appearances for Obama in crucial battleground states.
“President Clinton made the case in the way only he can. You know, somebody — somebody emailed me after his speech and said,’You need to appoint him secretary of explaining stuff,’” Obama joked in New Hampshire.
“That was pretty good. I like that. Secretary of Explaining Stuff.”
Obama’s spokeswoman Jen Psaki told reporters aboard Air Force One Friday that the campaign would be keen to have Clinton’s help again on the campaign trail ahead of the November 6 election clash with Mitt Romney.
“We’d love to have him out there as much as he is available,” Psaki said.
“He’s been an incredible advocate for the president for quite some time,” Psaki said.
