Bill Clinton could star as a sensitive but beleaguered president, harried by the demands of office, an even more demanding wife and his wacky next-door neighbor. Surrounded by curvaceous interns and nubile secretaries, he can't resist a little dalliance. Also, in the age of narrowcasting, the right person on the right show in the right niche can be a blockbuster.
Court TV covers the law.
And the president has been involved with more litigation than any other distinguished public figure this side of Dan Rostenkowski. With Hillary as special guest, he could explain how to accidentally misplace pertinent records such as billing files and videotapes, and yet quickly retrieve them when public pressure forces reluctant disclosure. The president could address the camera directly when discussing his feelings about legal matters. Imagine him talking about his pain when Paula Jones rejected his offer of a cash settlement and a public statement that she did nothing inappropriate, despite the fact that he was the one accused of wrongdoing. I also hope that the president would use his formidable powers of persuasion and high Q ratings to induce Susan McDougal to sit down for a no-restrictions interview.
