Clinton: Speaking Southern a virtue, not a viceGREENVILLE, South Carolina (AP) -- Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton said Friday she sees her sometimes Southern accent as a virtue."I think America is ready for a multilingual president," Clinton said during a campaign stop at a charter school in Greenville.The New York senator -- who said she's been thinking about critics who've suggested that she tried to put on a fake Southern accent in Selma, Alabama -- noted that she's split her life between Arkansas, Illinois and the East Coast.Clinton added a Southern lilt to her voice last week when addressing a civil rights group in New York City headed by the Rev. Al Sharpton. On Monday, dealing with a microphone glitch at a fundraiser for young donors, she quoted former slave and underground railroad leader Harriet Tubman. The two episodes prompted some ribbing in the media and hatched more than a few humorous YouTube video clips.Clinton is a linguistic polyglot -- a Chicago native turned New York resident who works in Washington and spent two decades living in Arkansas when her husband, Bill Clinton, was governor. But observers have long noted her tendency to speak Southern primarily in front of black audiences.
Hillary seems like a condescending phony.
i'd make love to her
She actually admitted it? I can't wait to see her chameleon-like pandering when she has to deal with foreign diplomats. Lesser of two errors, but I hope Obama does get the nom ahead of her.

What the fuck does faking an accent have anything to do with being multilingual?

Can people change their accents as adults? I think they're faking like madonna with her British accent.
