Bill Clinton at TNDP Jackson Day

I’m sure several others have written about Jackson Day in Nashville already. To be perfectly honest, when I got home I started capturing video of the event and haven’t stopped since.

I’ve never been to a state level political event this large. There were some 3000 people in attendance to see keynote speakers Vice-President Gore and President Clinton. The whole thing was inspiring.

Even though I spent the majority of my formative years living in Arkansas, where Bill Clinton was first my Governor, then my President, in the past eight years, I had forgotten a lot of the “why” Bill Clinton is the intellectual and political force to be reckoned with that he is.

Here is Bill Clinton’s entire speech to the TNDP Jackson Day crowd. It’s a must see, not only for Tennessee Democrats, but Democrats nationwide.

    And another question: does anyone have any recommendations for campaign managers out here in East TN? We’re looking at a house race. Steve can I shoot you an email over this? I know a bunch of GOP operatives but they’re not exactly much use unless I was looking to shoot myself in the foot. 😀

    Thank you for posting these. He is still the best president – very smart, captivating. He and his wife are simply the best.
