1932: President seeking reelection: Herbert Hoover Unemployment rate: 23.6 percent infoplease.com 1996: President seeking reelection: Bill Clinton Unemployment rate, Feb. 1996: 5.5 percent 2004: President seeking reelection: George W. Bush Unemployment rate, Feb. 2004: 5.6 percent Funny how you hear Bush's "jobs" performance mentioned in the same breath as Hoover's all the time, and not with Clinton's. He inherited a shrinking economy, a rapidly declining stock market (Nasdaq declined 2400 points in Clinton's last ten months in office), endured 9/11 and the resulting economic shocks, and came out of it with unemployment pretty much where Clinton had it after one term. And the only name we hear is Herbert Hoover's.
