William J Clinton Keith Pruitt Ed S

Of all the persons in the national spotlight over the last fifty years, perhaps few have continued to be as polarizing as Bill Clinton. When he left office he was the most popular President since Ike Eisenhower. But today, due in part to the partisanship brought on by Hillary's attempts to become President, President Clinton has failed to achieve elder statesman status. While deeply beloved by many, he is vilified by others. But what makes Bill Clinton tick. An astute and well educated man, he began life with another name in a remote town in an all but forgotten southern state. But he rose to prominence to become a Rhodes scholar, law professor, Attorney General of Arkansas and then led as Governor for ten years gaining national acclaim for his work on education, welfare reform and health care. Defeating an incumbent President, he became a moderate force to be reckoned with in Washington. His historic Presidency, to be noted for numerous outstanding achievements, will forever be known as the second to be impeached as well as the second to be censored by Congress. What makes this man tick. Come along as historian Keith Pruitt attempts to determine the essence of Bill Clinton.
