If we are objective and forget Clinton's base and churlish personal 
behaviour, he did an excellent job of promoting globlazation of the 
economices and the marketization of our our economy and many economies 
of the world. We were actually running a surplus during the Clinton 
administration. And why was this happening. Not because of what the 
govenment did, but becuase of what the government did NOT do. The 
gridlock of the government reduced interference and the good times they 
did roll. Clinton was not a doctrinaire New Dealer. If a moderate 
Republican let the economy fly as did Clinton, you would have been 
delighted.

Stange, is it not, that the consequences of minimizating government and 
maximizing market happened during the watch of a Democrat and not a 
Republican.
