Hillary Clinton told an audience in Kentucky that she is planning on pulling former President Bill Clinton out of retirement to lend a hand in revitalizing the economy.

The Washington Post’s Abby D. Phillip tweeted from a Clinton campaign event in Kentucky:

Clinton gets specific on the job Bill would have in her WH: "My husband, who I’m going to put in charge of revitalizing the economy…" — Abby D. Phillip (@abbydphillip) May 15, 2016

Putting the former president in charge of revitalizing the economy would be the perfect use of Bill Clinton’s talents. Bill Clinton could play the role of First Gentleman, but when you have a former president who is synonymous with economic success, it would be foolish not to use him as an asset in her Clinton administration.

Republicans can’t offer voters anything like the promise that Bill Clinton will be put back to work to build on the economic progress of the Obama years. What Republicans are offering is a novice candidate who plans on tearing everything down that has been achieved since the great recession and giving an $3.2 trillion tax cut to millionaires and billionaires.

Hillary Clinton’s willingness to discuss what role Bill will fill in her administration should frighten Republicans on many levels. In the corner of the Democratic nominee will the last two presidents who oversaw economic turnarounds. On the Republican side, Trump will be running with the party that caused the Great Recession.

Forget the White House Easter Egg Roll; Bill Clinton might be coming back to the White House to help the former Sec. of State kick the nation’s economy into overdrive.
