Would you want to see Bill Clinton play an active policy role in a potential Hillary Clinton administration?If Bill Clinton wasn't with the Hillary campaign, there would be no Hillary campaign! I like them both, but Bill's the star.
-Terry, NebraskaAs a guy older than you, God help us both, I've seen a lot of politicians come and go. Bill Clinton may be the smartest one I've seen in my lifetime, although that isn't saying much. Let’s hope he contributes in some positive way. Hillary will need all the help she can get.
-StewartHe would be a great addition to her administration, more than she was in his. Unfortunately, he can't be a member of her Cabinet from what I hear, but he would be a great roving ambassador.

No, I don't want to see Bill Clinton as a policy maker should Hillary be elected. It's one thing when a spouse adds to a presidency through support or encouraging an administration's program. It's quite another for a president's spouse to engage in policy making. -
Anne, Seattle Not only will Bill Clinton need to be called upon, but every other person who can possibly contribute to getting us out of the mess we're in. It will be All Hands on Deck.
-Peggy, Baltimore, MarylandShould a Middle Eastern government be allowed to own a large stake in an American stock exchange?
It is very sad that at this point in time, it is all about the dollar. Greedy people are even willing to sacrifice the financial security of this great country to make money. The Nasdaq/Dubai deal is an absolute disgrace.
-Uyi, HoustonOf course not. That's as crazy as opening up our country's highways to Mexican trucks. It's the kind of thing, though, that we are starting to get used to.

Dear Jack, It would appear that the answer is a no-brainer. However, since you asked, I believe it is unwise for any foreign government to have even a minority stake in such a major component of what controls our economy.

Sure, why not? We're already half owned by China, why not throw some Middle Eastern influences in there as well.
