BIOGRAPHY of PRESIDENT WILLIAM JEFFERSON CLINTON
William Jefferson
"
Bill
"
Clinton
(b. August 19, 1946) is an
American
politician who served as the
42nd
President of the United States
from 1993 to 2001. Inaugurated at age 46, he was the
third-youngest president
. He took office at the end of the
Cold War
, and was the first president from the
baby boomer
generation. Clinton has been described as a
New Democrat
. Many of his policies have been attributed to a
centrist
Third Way
philosophy of governance. Before becoming president he was the
Governor of Arkansas
for five two-year terms, serving from 1979 to 1981 and from 1983 to 1992. He was also the state's Attorney General from 1977 to 1979.
Born and raised in Arkansas, Clinton became both a student leader and a skilled musician. He is an alumnus of
Georgetown University
, where he was a member of
Phi Beta Kappa
and
Kappa Kappa Psi
and earned a
Rhodes Scholarship
to attend the
University of Oxford
. He is married to
Hillary Rodham Clinton
, who served as
United States Secretary of State
from 2009 to 2013 and who was a
Senator from New York
from 2001 to 2009. Both Clintons received
law degrees
from
Yale Law School
, where they met and began dating. As
Governor of Arkansas
, Clinton overhauled the state's education system, and served as Chair of the
National Governors Association
.
Clinton was elected president in
1992
, defeating incumbent
George H. W. Bush
. Clinton presided over the longest period of peacetime economic expansion in American history, and signed into law the
North American Free Trade Agreement
. After failing to pass
national health care reform
, the Democratic House was ousted when the
Republican Party
won control
of the
Congress
in 1994 for the first time in 40 years. Two years later, Clinton became the first Democrat since
Franklin D. Roosevelt
to be elected president twice. He passed
welfare reform
and the
State Children's Health Insurance Program
, providing health coverage for millions of children. In 1998, he was
impeached
for
perjury
before a
grand jury
and
obstruction of justice
during a lawsuit against him, both related to a
scandal involving a White House intern
. He was acquitted by the
U.S. Senate
and served his complete term of office. The
Congressional Budget Office
reported a budget surplus between the years 1998 and 2000, the last three years of Clinton's presidency.
Clinton left office with the highest end-of-office
approval rating
of any U.S. president since World War II. Since then, he has been involved in public speaking and humanitarian work. Based on his philanthropic worldview, Clinton created the
William J. Clinton Foundation
to promote and address international causes such as prevention of
AIDS
and
global warming
. In 2004, he published his autobiography
My Life
. He has remained active in politics by campaigning for Democratic candidates, most notably for
his wife's campaign for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination
, and then
Barack Obama
's presidential campaigns in
2008
and
2012
. In 2009, he was named United Nations
Special Envoy
to
Haiti
, and after the
2010 Haiti earthquake
he teamed with
George W. Bush
to form the
Clinton Bush Haiti Fund
. Since leaving office, Clinton has been rated highly in
public opinion polls of U.S. presidents
.
