Former President Bill Clinton stopped in Beaumont to drum up support for his wife Hillary Clinton's presidential bid. To the right of Clinton is former U.S. Rep. Jack Brooks.

In need of a Texas victory, former President Bill Clinton made a stop in Beaumont Feb. 20, urging supporters to vote for his wife Hillary Clinton in the March 4 Democratic primaries and caucuses as she vies for the party's presidential nomination.

Among the more than 1,000 supporters in downtown Beaumont were many of the area's prominent plaintiffs' lawyers, including Brent Coon, Wayne Reaud and Clay Dugas.
