From conservative leaning US News and World Report...
GOP front-runner, real estate mogul and reality television star Donald Trump has vowed to be "the greatest jobs president that God ever created." To do so, he'd need to unseat former Democratic President Bill Clinton, who averaged nearly 242,000 monthly job gains during his eight years in the White House. Over the last six decades or so, history has tended to favor Democratic presidents in terms of economic performance. The country's unemployment rate has been lower at the end of every Democrat's tenure since Kennedy took office in 1961.

Jobs for Mexicans and Chinese through NAFTA and China trade policies. Jobs for those who transferred military secrets to China. Jobs for the Wall Street gang who made billions off the repeal of Glass-Steagle.

I am not sure what Bill Clinton had to do with the internet. I know what he had to do with pushing China into the WTO and working out a permanent trade deal with them at the end of his term. It led to a huge spike in outsourcing and with our trade deficit. Bush and Obama have not enjoyed that parting gift.

“The decision in 2000 to shield the exotic financial instruments known as over-the-counter derivatives from regulation, made during the last year of President Bill Clinton’s term, is called ‘a key turning point’ in the march towards the financial crisis.”
Finally, the Clinton adminstration threatened to subject the mortgage companies to the CRA if they didn't comply voluntarily. They promptly agreed to increase their CRA-type lending in order to escape the kind of public scrutiny that comes with official CRA regulated status.
If the CRA was forcing all this lax lending, why weren't bankers objecting?
Are you really in the dark about why the leaders of large public corporations wouldn't publicly object to a piece of civil rights legislation? Fine. I'll be totally open with you: this would have been career suicide and an open invitation to bias litigation and increased scrutiny from regulators. In this case, silence is misleading.

In 1994 the Clinton Administration changed how they counted the unemployment, had they not changed that number and used the same method, your statement would not be true.
