BILL CLINTON
Youthful 5x8 image, inscribed the year he was first elected Governor
of Arkansas
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To Jules Greenberg/Bill
Clinton/1/15/79". B/w, 5x8. Bill Clinton, born William Jefferson
Blythe III in Hope, Arkansas in 1946, was Governor of Arkansas
(1979-1981, 1983-1992) and the first Democrat reelected President since
Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The only elected U.S. President to be
impeached (Andrew Johnson was impeached, but he had not been elected to the
office), on Feb. 12, 1999, President Clinton was acquitted on both articles of
impeachment brought against him: charges of perjury and obstruction of justice.
Clinton's popularity stood at 67% at the end of his trial, however. Obviously,
many Americans were willing to overlook his personal failings in an era of
peace and prosperity. His accomplishments in office included a waiting
period for gun purchases (the Brady Law), the Family and Medical Leave Act, the
North American Free Trade Agreement, welfare reform and balancing of the federal
budget. Clinton had previously co-written (with Al Gore) Putting People
First (1992), and he would publish his successful autobiography, My
Life, in 2004. Clinton's wife, former First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton,
was a Democratic U.S. Senator from New York (2001-9), and became Secretary of
State under President Obama, the man who had narrowly defeated her for her
Party's Presidential nomination. Lightly worn. Otherwise, fine condition.
