With Hillary Clinton poised to make a presidential run, some people are recalling the time that she and the former President spent in the White House. While the country viewed the Clinton presidential years from the outside, dozens of people had a first-hand look at how the First Family conducted themselves.
Now, the observations of many White House ushers, florists, cooks, and other staffers have been compiled in a new book by Kate Andersen Brower, entitled The Residence: Inside the Private World of The White House.
Here are some of the more eyebrow-raising tidbits from the book:
“Okay, ma’am,” White replied. “It’s twelve o’clock now, and I get off at one and someone else will be in.”
Clinton looked intently at him. “I’ll call you when I’m done.”
“Yes, ma’am,” White replied, knowing that that meant he would have to stay until whenever she chose to leave. He didn’t get the call until nearly three-thirty that afternoon.
Chelsea [on the phone]: Oh, I’ve got to go. The pigs are here.
Secret Service agent [turning “crimson’]: Ms. Clinton, I want to tell you something. My job is to stand between you, your family, and a bullet. Do you understand?
Chelsea: Well, that’s what my mother and father call you.
For three or four months in 1998, the president slept on a sofa in a private study attached to their bedroom on the second floor. Most of the women on the residence staff thought he got what he deserved.
As of today, The Residence is available for purchase in bookstores and online.
