EAST HAMPTON, N.Y.- Bill Clinton is oozing passion and charm as he sings his wife’s praises at lavish fundraisers throughout the Hamptons.

Clinton recounted how world leaders are rooting for her election and how he plans to play a major role in the domestic and foreign policies of his wife’s administration.

While Hillary Clinton has said she hopes her husband will be a freewheeling ambassador around the globe, Bill Clinton outlined Friday night a far larger role, including helping organize a new Clinton administration and selling her domestic policies to the nation.

“My highest and best use for her would be, first of all, helping her get set up, helping organize and get going, selecting good people and doing all that, and, then, trying to help sell the most important domestic initiatives within America, and trying to help solve the most thorny and delicate foreign policy problems around the world,” Bill Clinton said.

The former president delivered the remarks to an adoring crowd of supporters Friday night kicking off three days of high-profile fundraisers in the Hamptons.

Hillary Clinton had been scheduled to attend but was held up Friday voting on Capitol Hill. She arrived at Saturday night’s gala at the estate of Revlon billionaire Ron Perelman, an event that included Jon Bon Jovi, Chevy Chase and Howard Gittis, GOP Sen. John McCain’s New York finance chairman. The events are expected to raise $1 million.

While many of the guests at Friday’s fundraisers said they were disappointed the senator couldn’t make it, they appeared enthralled with Bill Clinton, hanging on his every word.

The former president also said he would not be part of his wife’s Cabinet. He said it would be illegal for her to appoint him, even though he joked, “I know she could easily fire me,” prompting laughter.

On foreign affairs, he said his role would be invaluable to his wife because she could dispatch him anywhere in the world and “that would be the next best thing to her being (there) and people would know it.”

On hot global spots, he could accomplish the nation’s goals “in a way that even a secretary of state couldn’t because secretaries of state have a whole big world to deal with.”

While Clinton said he would do “whatever” his wife asked him to, he said he doesn’t plan to relinquish his role as head of the Clinton Foundation, a nonprofit group working on a host of issues worldwide. The foundation, he said, “is helping America and it’s also really important to me.”

Clinton said his wife’s election would “restore America’s standing in the world over night.” He added, “Every African leader I talked to, every single one when I was there, without any prodding from me, said, “For God sakes, I hope Hillary wins. We don’t like disliking America here.”‘

Bill Clinton also recounted his wife’s policies on a number of domestic issues, concluding, “You will never have a chance to vote for a person who will make you a better president.”

Sky Underwood, a Clinton supporter from New York City, said the former president did an outstanding job selling his wife’s candidacy.

“He didn’t try to upstage her. He didn’t try to put words in her mouth,” Underwood said. “It would just be so delightful to have them. It’s such a breath of fresh air. It’s really exciting.”

Connie Steensma, a retired management consultant who lives in Manhattan and Sag Harbor, said, “It’s wonderful that he’s supporting her.”

“He will be an enormous help,” Steensma said. “But Sen. Clinton will do it on her own.”

Khaled Damra, who lives in Bergen County, N.J., said it was clear the Clintons are a “package deal.”

So, does that mean Hillary Clinton will get your vote? “Absolutely,” Damra said with a smile.
