First there was only a mild recession in 92 and it was over before Clinton got into office. However, Clinton did some good things for the economy. However, Bill Clinton is a moderate Democrat. However, Hillary is a socialist. Big difference.

That's wrong, Kenneth... Clinton was in office from 1993 to 2001. The recession you are referring to reached its trough in March of 1991.
