Its interest -- -- the president seems to be playing and playing on a regular basis as class warfare game out seemed to backfire when he went after you on being.

Country very appreciative -- President Clinton for coming to your eight on that.

But did that when he says the private sector is doing fine.

This is the private sector doing.

Fine well you know the answer to that map as that I go across the country.

I meet with small business people.

Who are talking about -- having held back holding off on hiring holding off an expanding because of the uncertainty created in the Obama economy.

I speak with families having very difficult times.

People lost their jobs in some cases they have work but it's well beneath the kind of skill level that they would be normally able to achieve it in their workplace.

People -- -- tough -- right now and it's not just the eight point 2% that are unemployed it's a lot more than that that feel uncertainty that are underemployed.

That are having a hard time making ends meet.

The president's policies are not working they're not getting people back to work about the way his comment that the private sector is doing fine.

That would not just a little slip of the time or something taken out of context the context was less give more money to government.

That was a context the private sector is doing fine we need to give more money the government is what he said.

And and that is exactly the wrong direction for America giving more power and -- money -- government is what got Europe in the trouble it's in.

I would take us in a very different direction helped the private sector grow and thrive to create more jobs that's got to be our.

Say something about this is a one term proposition if he doesn't turn around and I remember -- that you all right we think of Marco Rubio told that this president is dividing the country by design.

Which -- -- -- interest -- now so far the president.

Has attack the issues involving -- your dog.

And the kennel on top of the car war on women that that they brought up Bain Capital your record as governor.

Do you believe that Marco Rubio is right in saying that this is being divisive by design is that a fair statement.

I'll take it actually thought I looked and I actually -- -- you know it's it's a campaign.

And and to me they don't wanna run and the record and so they're gonna attack us and I think early on records and remember this is like.

They -- sportsmen let out and leaked out how they were gonna do that it was like kill network.

And I'm like well okay I guess it's coming.

That thing that thing is that I cents again.

-- -- -- -- -- They're they want a positive vision of how to get America out of this mess and they're gonna turn to the guy that knows how to do it he's -- and he's had success in his life he knows how he knows how to deal with difficult situations he's an economic.

Guy that understands the economy understands going jobs and he also is someone that recognizes how important it is to have a strong military in this country.

And so high in sensing this growing.

Bubbling up.

Enthusiasm.

Permits candidacy.

Because of -- -- 44 years you grew up together.

Great life story.

How and would you envision your role as First Lady and by the way I hope it's not to take away my big -- or.

Tell me what I can and cannot eat as the mayor of New York is -- -- -- or how would you envision your roles personally.

Well and you know -- I think what people are very -- that I you know -- with several several issues and health issues in my life and multiple sclerosis and breast cancer and for me I I would hope that I would always be talking about that and caring for people that are suffering.

And going through difficult times in their life and having challenges in their life.

And beyond that I've also works a lot with at risk youth and in doing that.

The thing I've learned and how important it is that we always give and reach out -- helping hand.

And never forget that and then this this is why I think this country is setting.

We always do that we are -- nation and so I would hope.

That my overall.

Purpose and mission would be -- never forget that we care and -- for one another.

One last question.

What would be one story about your husband's.

-- one story that you would like the country to know about him.

That they probably never heard before.

I don't like launching -- -- -- I don't know I don't know you know and that is in my most difficult moment.

And the time where I thought my life was completely finished where I was desperate and in the darkest days of my life.

For him to say to me do not weary we're together.

-- together we can do anything.

And as long as it's not terminal we can deal with -- and -- to know after that what he did.

To help me -- through -- darkest hours and he literally took over my daily responsibilities.

He was grocery shopping he was cooking dinner.

By the way he's he's now doing my laundry it's now he's discovered on the road when we come back -- -- He's -- figured out how to really do the laundry pretty well so.

That's an excellent Ellison but senate can be explained as a man trying to impress a -- yeah I'm still trying to -- the president now at the -- -- -- some moderate and you and you didn't tell them what you were sick got Super Tuesday.

Now I was not happy about that when her because you knew it had a flare up of the issues you had breast cancer and -- and -- you MSU struggled for about ten years -- I had I had again -- sound anyone that battles with MS we all share went there a lot of people of different symptoms in different manifestations of that but all of us have the team.

And for me I have to really monitor that and when I'm when I -- -- that I can excessively fatigued.

And things start to really call her ex.

It's another thank you for your time thank you -- -- thank you so look fabulous.
