1 Day After Hillary Clinton praised Obama relentlessly at the debates, Bill Clinton bashes him

While Hillary Clinton is wrapping herself in President Obama, Bill Clinton is seemingly pushing him away. The former president made a comment while campaigning in Tennessee Thursday that is sure to offend some in the coveted black voting bloc. Playing off Congressman Steve Cohen’s introduction that claimed Bill Clinton was just a “stand-in for the first black president,” Clinton told an audience in Memphis, “You know what we learned from the human genome? “We learned that unless your ancestors — everyone of you — are 100 percent, 100 percent from sub-Saharan Africa, we are all mixed race people.” Obama, after all, is “mixed race” — his mother was white and his father was black. Is Clinton saying Obama isn’t really the first black president? The Commercial Appeal reports that wasn’t the only swipe at Obama: But in talking about the struggles of middle- and lower-class America, Clinton was met with silence when he said President Barack Obama wasn’t a “change-maker” like Hillary. He clarified a few sentences later that Obama has had accomplishments, including the Affordable Care Act. Friday night, MSNBC aired video of that statement.
