Bill Clinton to hail Barack Obama as saviour of America's middle class

In June, Bill Clinton appeared to say that income tax cuts introduced by President George W. Bush, which are due to expire at the end of the year, should be extended for all to prevent an economic slump.(Agencies)

Bill Clinton will tell struggling Americans nostalgic for his presidency that Barack Obama is still the man to rebuild the middle class, while Mitt Romney would hand ruinous tax cuts to the rich.

In a speech closing the second night of the Democratic convention, the former president will warn voters that Mr Romney would repeat the economic policies that "got us in trouble in the first place".

"President Obama has a plan to rebuild America from the ground up," he said in a campaign video billed by Obama aides as a preview of his remarks. "It only works if there is a strong middle class. That's what happened when I was president. We need to keep going with his plan." Mr Clinton is expected to contrast Mr Obama's priorities of education and training with Mr Romney's pledge to cut income taxes and reverse the regulation of the financial sector since the 2008 crisis.

Mr Obama has worked to repair the damage to their relationship caused by his defeat of the former president's wife, Hillary, in 2008's bitter party primary, by seeking his counsel over rounds of golf.

In June, Mr Clinton appeared to say that income tax cuts introduced by President George W. Bush, which are due to expire at the end of the year, should be extended for all to prevent an economic slump. Mr Obama opposes extending the tax cuts for high earners. Mr Clinton later insisted they were in agreement.

Jeffrey Lord, a historian and former aide to Ronald Reagan, said the only precedent for Mr Clinton's role in recent memory was the speech given by Mr Reagan as a "private citizen" to the 1992 Republican convention, as his successor, George H.W. Bush, struggled to defend his presidency against Mr Clinton.

"It was for exactly the same reason," Mr Lord told the reporters.

"Obama needs Clinton just as Bush needed Reagan. But even Reagan couldn't save Bush – and I'm not sure Clinton can save Obama."

在民主黨大會第二天晚上的閉幕詞中，這位前總統(tǒng)將警告選民，羅姆尼會重復(fù)“最初讓我們陷入麻煩”的經(jīng)濟(jì)政策。

克林頓在一段奧巴馬競選視頻中說：“奧巴馬總統(tǒng)有一個徹底改造美國的計(jì)劃。只有在美國中產(chǎn)階級勢力壯大時，這一計(jì)劃才會奏效。我當(dāng)總統(tǒng)時也是這一情況。我們需要繼續(xù)按他的計(jì)劃前進(jìn)?！眾W巴馬的助手將在克林頓致辭前發(fā)布這一視頻。人們期待克林頓會將奧巴馬注重教育和培訓(xùn)的政策傾向與羅姆尼減少個稅、徹底改變2008年危機(jī)以來的經(jīng)濟(jì)法規(guī)的承諾作比較。

奧巴馬自從在2008年黨內(nèi)候選人初選激戰(zhàn)中打敗前總統(tǒng)克林頓的妻子希拉里之后，一直努力修補(bǔ)由此造成的和克林頓之間的感情嫌隙，比如他們在一起打高爾夫時奧巴馬會征求克林頓的意見。

六月份時，克林頓現(xiàn)身說，年底就要到期的小布什總統(tǒng)的降低個稅政策應(yīng)該對所有人延期，以防經(jīng)濟(jì)陷入衰退。但奧巴馬反對減稅政策對高收入者延期。后來克林頓也堅(jiān)稱他們在這方面達(dá)成一致。

曾做過里根總統(tǒng)助手的歷史學(xué)家杰弗里•羅德說，克林頓所扮演的角色在近些年的唯一先例是里根作為“普通公民”在1992年共和黨大會上發(fā)表的演講，當(dāng)時他的繼任者老布什總統(tǒng)正和克林頓抗?fàn)?，努力爭取連任。

羅德告訴記者說：“克林頓力挺奧巴馬完全是出自同一個原因?！?/SPAN>

“奧巴馬需要克林頓，就像老布什需要里根一樣。但即使是里根也救不了布什，所以我不確定克林頓能否救得了奧巴馬?！?/SPAN>
