The second paragraph states, according to CBO, Clinton left a budget surplus 1998-2000. Please notify these people at the link above that the CBO lied, and that it did not happen. Sorry for using actual facts.

It doesn’t mean he was a good President, it just means he benefited from Community ReInvestment Act and prosperity that pushed housing prices higher to the bubble, and that he and Hillary worked hard to keep lending to the poor.

Yes, Wikipedia claims it, but the actual record - which I linked to - shows it to not be the case. The actual debt record at the US Treasury - what I linked - shows the national debt increasing every single year.

As far as the CBO goes, remember they told us that Obamacare would save $1.6 trillion in deficits over the next 10 years!

The actual debt record is unequivocal and maintained to the penny - and every year under President Clinton it increased, as it has done since President Eisenhower.
