We continue our special in-depth educational series, Meet Your Superdelegates. A rare chance to get to know specific superdelegates who will be deciding the Democratic presidential nominee. We’re focusing on party elders, government officials, senior advisors, and other high profile politicians who feature prominently in television and film. And we boldly speculate whom they will back at the Democratic convention. Today’s superdelegate profile comes from the breakthrough comedy movie sensation “The Wedding Crashers.”

William Cleary is a U.S. Treasury Secretary with a spacious home on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Despite a tough-as-nails demeanor, his leads a dysfunctional family.  Nevertheless, he’s seen a future President.  At his daughter’s wedding, he says to a guest (whom he doesn’t realize is crashing the event): “A sailor? Good man! Sit down. You didn’t happen to catch my speech on the Paraguayan debt and money supply issue did you?”  Attention to details like that captures the spirit and appreciation of Bill Clinton’s wife Hillary.
