"Hilary 2016!": What is Bill talking about?

After a recent discussion in our class regarding the political future of Hillary Clinton I was humored to come across a current relative article on CNN's website this afternoon. The title says it all, "Bill Clinton weighs a Hillary Clinton presidential bid". There is certainly no doubt that former President Clinton enjoys his fair share of campaigns, even when they are not necessarily for him.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has made several indications that she has no interest in pursuing the honorable position of Commander in Chief in the future. In fact, she stated that after her current position comes to an end that she would like to leave the political scene and relax at home for some time. She has held numerous roles in public service and her dedication to American politics cannot be matched by many other women in the country.
Former President Bill Clinton jokes a bit in the interview with the reporter saying that he would find happiness if she either came home and worked on the foundation for a bit or if she chose to run for president.
In the same article, it is interesting to note that Bill's political agenda of supporting President Obama's re-election was mentioned. He claims that the work of Obama thus far in 'fixing' our nation's economic troubles must be continued by the same person. He believes that the win will be easy for Obama in this election; a thought he has had for a while now.
