64. Clinton did some very good things, and some not so good.

Reinstating a bit of progressive taxation was good. NAFTA and many other things were not. Remember that he had his own Iraq war, which, although it was a low-intensity one as far as we were concerned, produced a lot of casualties, many of them children. Clinton also had the good fortune to preside over some amazing boom times that he didn't create, but whose aura illuminated his tenure in office. It was the era when the personal computer and the internet took off, the economy soaring with them.
