Back in the 60s it was done by the FBI.

They also never talked to ex-spouses because the assumed there would be a level of extreme animosity toward the party seeking the clearance and they would say anything to get back at the person.

Wasn’t married at the time so I don’t know personally about that then. Just, they interviewed the entire family and all the neighbors as well as others from college. Seems to me they would have interviewed ex-spouses because of blackmail potentials - they were big on it then.

I heard under Clinton the whole process was reduced to a interviews by phone from a list supplied by the applicant ...

Naw. The collapse was a Clinton act. Obama just finished it off.

Who hired Craig Livingstone?

The Clintons tried to imply that he just walked in off the street and took over White House security on his own....and no one noticed.
