THIS WEEK IN HISTORY - BILL CLINTON STOPS IN ELON
'‘nhtlngforus
Former Presideot Bill Clinton addresses education issues at the Finn e t f“™BVHAiiTAUXE
e«or, to earner supper, ,.rhiswi,e's20,6presidraroaC!^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Ten years ago, former
President Bill Clinton stepped
onto a stage in front of Powell
to talk to both Elon University
and the Alamance community.
With Fonville Fountain in
the background, Clinton spoke
to nearly 2,000 people on behalf
of his wife, Hillary Clinton, who
was campaigning for the 2008
presidential election. And Bill
didn’t waste any breath push
ing Hillary’s platform before the
primaries on May 6.
“[Hillary Clinton] is the
best change maker I have ever
known, and if I had never been
married to Hillary but had just
known her, I’d still be working
as hard for her. We just need a
better system, and Hillary will
give it to you,” Bill said.
Elori was a crucial stop for
Hillary’s campaign trail as the
surrounding rural commu
nity and student population
at Elon resonated well with
Hillary’s economic platform.
Daniel Shutt, then president
of College Democrats, reacted
well to Bill’s speech.
“Clinton’s speech focused
primarily on issues like jobs,
health care and gas prices,
and people responded well
North Carolina has been hit
hard by this recession, and
Clinton spoke to our concerns
very effectively.”
That year, Clinton also vis
ited Wake Forest University
on April 18 and sent his
daughter Chelsea to speak to
other campuses.
