Commentators have been kindly warning Bill Clinton to watch his attacks on Barack Obama, because between what he and his wife Hillary have already said, the black community is not amused. The above posted video and several mainstream publications flat out accuses him of lying about Obama's track record, which is not a good look on the former president.

"Davos Bill is tarnishing his philanthropic brand"

Davos is a place ideally made for Mr Clinton in his post-presidential incarnation. He embodies the aspects of the US that are still admired by the rest of the world after nearly eight years of George W. Bush. He is eloquent, thoughtful, sensitive to inequality and suffering outside US borders and determined to do something about it.

Just lately, however, Mr Clinton has been back on the campaign trail in the US in support of his wife Hillary. He has adopted tactics that, if he does not curb himself soon, may tarnish his global brand irreparably. That would be a shame, not only for him but also for the causes that he has placed his weight behind." http://www.ft.com/cms
