Hillary Clinton Falls Asleep During Obama Speech in Myanmar – Video

Adjust text size:


As the saying goes, this could happen to anyone but, chances are, in no other case would it be as embarrassing as in that of a politician. Hillary Clinton fell asleep during President Barack Obama’s most recent speech.

The President was in Myanmar on an official visit, the first ever by a President of the US.

Hillary Clinton who, in her defense, had been traveling for weeks on end at the time the video above was shot (which is now slowly but surely going viral), was in the official convoy.

CNN cameras panned on her as she sat next to Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi, listening to Obama’s speech.

As you can see, it’s clear from the start she’s having trouble staying focused on the speech and not dozing off. In the end, though, Mrs. Clinton just gives up and catches some well-deserved Z’s.

Her husband Bill Clinton knows a thing or two about this, as the video below will confirm. Politicians, they’re just like us.

She must simply have been exhausted. Saving the world from itself takes so much energy. No wonder she has elected to step away from her cabinet position! Is it too much to hope that she runs for President in 2016? She would be wonderful.

When a person is traveling as much as she is, it is only human that you can only go w/out so much sleep..it is understandable...to me not a big thing..

Golden slumber filled their eyes....that goes without saying that forces of nature are stronger than forces of politics.
