Per Drudge Report (really!): Nancy Reagan endorses Hillary
I don't even...I just...it's so...
Last week, during a promotional press conference for The History Channel’s upcoming series “First Ladies in Their Own Words,” series’ host Ron Reagan shared clips of his interviews with all living former First Ladies of the United States. In a brief video clip with his mother Nancy Reagan, she offered her endorsement of Hillary Clinton as President saying, “The time for a woman to serve as our President has come – really, now is the time – and I think the idea of having a former First Lady as the leader of the free world is really quite a marvelous notion. I want Hillary to win. Even though I admire two of the current potential Republican nominees, I have no interest in seeing either of them lead this country.”
“First Ladies in Their Own Words” is the brainchild of Presidential historian Doris Kearns Goodwin and Ron Reagan, son of President Ronald Reagan. Broadcast in chronological order of their husbands’ terms in office, Goodwin and Reagan hope the series will show the importance of our First Ladies as a reflection of the culture of the nation during their years in the White House.

Asked about his mother’s endorsement of Hillary Clinton, Reagan thought it showed how little America actually knew about the woman behind the Republican icon. “She wants people to know that the First Ladies are tight. They get together once a year to support each other. In fact, Hillary had no interest in running until both Laura and Barbara Bush cornered her at their get-together in May 2013 and talked her into at least thinking about it! So, in a sense, if Mrs. Clinton does run and win, you can blame the Bush family.”

And that was a strong interest of hers, given her husband's affliction.
The link worked fine for me (another poster said there might have been a problem?) but in the event it fails, here's another to the original source:

I can't help but notice that the National Report has the hilarious tagline AMERICA'S #1 INDEPENDENT NEWS SOURCE flanked by little photos of Ted Carnival Cruz and Sarah She-so-crazy Palin!!! Independent, my ass!
Funny, though, that they're carrying this report--are they ready to throw the "Followers of Saint Ronnie" under the bus, too?
The series looks good, though--Ron Reagan is pretty good at this kind of thing, and between him and Doris Kearns Goodwin they'll probably crank out a vibrant set of programs.
