During some private moments I shared with Hillary Clinton during the four hours we spent together on June 9, 2000, Hillary confided to me a few "confidences" which provide telling insights into her character. The most "delicate" confidence related to her first visit to my alma mater during Dartmouth College's Winter Carnival in 1967. Hillary was set up on a blind date with a good looking freshman from California, who coincidentally was a friend of mine, and in the course of the weekend long "date" he abandoned her.
When I used a reference to Hillary's "date jilt" story in my introduction of her to a crowd of 150 Hollywood elite that I assembled to donate money to her campaign, including Larry King, Melanie Griffith among others, Hillary looked up at me before I could provide the embarassing details and said, "Dont tell them everything!" That phrase has come to represent my relationship with her ever since.
Her appearance during the late 1960s seemed more ideally suited for a Paula Jones fan like Bill Clinton, than the California surfer "type" she had been attracted to, guaranteeing her embarassment when her blind date at Dartmouth turned into a trauma she will always remember.
In the course of sharing our "pasts" during the bonding session we had during a VIP lunch I hosted for her at Spago in Beverly Hills, June 9, 2000, I made references to my swashbuckling days as an international lawyer in Miami in the 1970s when I led a plot to expose Fidel Castro's frauds on his benefactors in the Soviet union while liberating almost $10 million from his personal piggy bank, the Banco Nacional de Cuba. These activities, during Jimmy Carter and Bert Lance's control of the government, resulted in my receiving two felony convictions and a suspension of my law license, which clearly did not bother her.(see my latest court filing in Paul v Clinton et al).
She did discuss fate and destiny with me and her belief that we are all predestined to the lives we live. She intimated her conviction that her destiny could lead her to becoming the most reknown woman in history, and I had the distinct impression it was based on her presumption of a career beyond being the first Co-President of the US and the first First Lady to become a US Senator. Hillary's announcement is clearly not a surprise to anyone who has known and followed Hillary's career- it was in fact anti-climactic in the controlled, low key way she threw her considerable girth into the ring. But the notion that she is interested in a conversation with her fellow Americans signals the beginning of the most cynical, Clinton-speak propaganda campaign since Joseph Goebbels and Lenni Riefenstahl got together to develop a winning political campaign for Mr. Shickelgruber. The American people, and America as we know, is now "officially" threatened by the greatest internal political threat that has ever confronted our civil liberties and our constitutional democracy.
Peter Franklin Paul is the Hollywood entrepreneur and former international lawyer who co-founded Stan Lee Media with Spider Man creator Stan Lee. His efforts during 2000 to hire Bill Clinton, after he left the White House in 2001, resulted in his underwriting and executive producing The Hollywood Gala Tribute Concert and Salute to President Clinton in August, 2000. Paul hired Grammy producer Gary Smith to produce the largest private concert ever produced and unseen by the public. The Gala was also the largest fund-raising event for Hillary Clinton's Senate campaign. Hillary Clinton's efforts to hide Paul's role as her largest campaign contributor resulted in the criminal prosecution of her finance director and the FEC settlement with her campaign treasurer that forced an admission of filing false reports that hid more than $721,000 contributed by Paul.
