There will be no second term for the corrupt one, he will most likely be in jail by that time, or back in the sewers of Chicago where he belongs.
BTW, Clinton was NOT a good president, only to the ignorant left...

I would just ignore him he has a mental illness.. Although, the hissy fit makes sense. It seems to be a liberal thing when you don't agree with them.

I don't know any actual liberal who would claim that moderate Republicans like Clinton or Obama are good Presidents. Decent and better than the contemporaneous Republican alternative, but not good.

Clinton also knew full well that NAFTA would destroy the livelihoods of millions of Americans. And he was pathetic enough to bomb a country just to keep the Monica story off the front pages.
