In Hillary Clinton's case, her supporters also call her Hillary, for the very sensible reason that someone else with the same last name is very famous and important in the same general sphere of endeavor.
- pron 13y agoLike President "Franklin", Senators "Ted" and "Bobby" and President "George W." (who was, that's true, on rare occasions nicknamed Dubya) you mean?
- skinnymuch 13y agoHah. I was so sure you were exaggerating these claims. But in these examples I automatically complete the person's last name in my mind yet for Hillary Clinton, I don't.
- bborud 13y agoWhich Franklin? There are two. The one you are probably thinking about is usually referred to as "Roosevelt" or "FDR".
