This is the second time in recent months that Bill Clinton has visited Oregon to stump for his wife. He promised that his wife would bring about much-needed change in Amercan politics.
"I think she's the best change-maker I ever knew," he said during his Oregon speech, noting her work as a law student to help protect victims of child abuse and as a U.S. senator to get benefits for New York police and firefighters who breathed polluted air after the 9/11 attack.
The former president's campaign swing took him to Portland, Bend and Salem on March 31st, after a visit to Medford the night before. His wife followed with a visit to Oregon the first weekend of April. Then, just over a week later, daughter Chelsea Clinton campaigned for Hillary in Oregon on April 12.
