After all these years... America looks back to the Clinton years as a prosperous and relatively peaceful time.
The only one who really knows about Bill's "dad" qualities is Chelsea. |

Chelsea didn't select Bill as father of the year and in my opinion a person who lies under oath, takes advantage of a young intern, and has a track record of being a womanizer certainly arent qualities I view as admirable. |

America loves Bill! When Gore and W were fighting for the 2000 presidency, polls showed that it was a close race, but if it were possible for Clinton to run for a 3rd term, Clinton would beat them both and be reelected. |

You're entitled to your opinion but in many people's minds Bill is no role model. |

So who is? The alcoholic coke addict who raised 2 fall down drunk daughters? The father who raised the alcoholic coke addict? Or the self absorbed actor who's kid's clashed with him constantly, and even wrote books about it? At least the Clintons kept their child some what insulated from the office. |

Maybe this would have been more appropriate if it was the "Who's Your Daddy" award. |
