President Bill Clinton, with a camera phone..




me rocking the Hillary shirt!!








On Saturday April 26th former President Bill Clinton came to our little town of Mcminnville to speak inside my old high school gym.. The whole thing was just crazy watching a former President stand and speak where you once stood as a cheerleader back in the day..It was an experience i will always remember and tell my kids when they are old enough to care..The Gym was packed with about a 1000 or more people and he was late getting there so the gym needless to say got very warm.. At the end of his speech i had to get up out of the bleachers to walk in the commons area before i passed out.. We could tell he was rapping the speech up and we knew he was leaving from the back side of the school down the back street so Jen and i decided to ditch her parents and begin our quest. Jennifer's brother is an officer and was on the street that was blocked off. So Jen and i decided to park the car, and walk down a few blocks to wear his get away cars and police were.. There were a handful of people standing in yard waiting to catch a glimse no more then 20 people.. Everyone else was on the opposite side of the school. We watched him come out and wave get into a suv and begin to drive,, but the with a sudden stop he jumped out to the suv, with his cia crew behind him right in front of us!! He walked to some older people and shook their hands and brushed the hair out of a little girls face to say hello.. He mentioned he did not have a lot of time, he was running late to Oregon City. He walked to an elderly man in his wheelchair who could not talk or raise his hand, and he raised it for him. Then he came to us ( we were the only ones all decked out in Hillary gear!lol) and said thanks girls for wearing her shirt and supporting Hillary.. I shook his hands with a big ole cheezy grin..and in that moment i wanted to search for somthing intellagent to say, somthing he would remember.. but the only words that fell out of my mouth were "we love her, thank you" hahahahaha... im such a dork!!! But it was such an experience..no it wasnt a one on one, but close enough all the other hundereds of people were on the other side..Jen and i were quite stealth... And you may not all like him but he was a former President, and a moment i will take with me forever...
