But what Bill â or at least the Bill Clinton who was in the White House from 1993 to 2001 â would probably tell her is to abandon every one of her far-left proposals if she wants to see a return to strong GDP growth.

And the reason she ‘donated’ all his used underwear was to keep the DNA tracks from being logged as potential evidence.......
Get her to proclaim, “The Era of Big Government is Over!”
Does anyone have a list of Bill Clinton’s pro-growth policies? Not the ones initiated in Congress, but his. (And no, I don’t consider the dot com bubble one of his policies unless someone can point out how he caused it.)
Bill’s economic success was due to Repub House under Newt Gringich....sorry to bring this up.
Bill’s economic record is really Newt Gingrich’s economic record. Bill wasn’t for anything that improved the economy; it was shoved down his throat.
During the election cycle of 1992, George H.W. Bush lost his job after Bill Clinton hammered him relentlessly for having caused the "worst economy of the last 50 years."
In fact, as CNN's Brooke Jackson has reported: "Three days before Christmas 1992, the National Bureau of Economic Research finally issued its official proclamation that the recession had ended 21 months earlier. What became the longest boom in U.S. history actually began nearly two years before Clinton took office." See (See http://www.cnn.com/2001/US/10/31/jackson.recession.primer.otsc/).
By the same token, Clinton is generally perceived as having a stellar economic record during his own presidency, in spite of the fact that the economy was already starting to decline during the last year of his term after the stock market crashed in March 2000.
According to a report by MSNBC: "The longest economic expansion in U.S. history faltered so much in the summer of 2000 that business output actually contracted for one quarter, the government said Wednesday in releasing a comprehensive revision of the gross domestic product. Based on new data, the Commerce Department said that the GDP -- the country's total output of goods and services -- shrank by 0.5 percent at an annual rate in the July-September quarter of 2000."

Pro-growth policies? You mean just happening to be present during the creation of the internet?
NO she doesnt, what she wants is bills record ONLY AFTER dim-0s lost both houses of congress in jan 1995. For the 2 years prior to that, klinton had the WH and dim-0s had congress AND, GDP growth SHRANK! From better than 4% on their 1st day, to barely 2% in 2 years.
The klinton “miracle” happened only after Mr.Newt and co. took over congress and as dim-0s of the time said, HAMSTRUNG klinton.
