First sentence: "In his 1978 gubernatorial campaign, Clinton stressed the importance of a quality educational system for addressing many of the state's economic ills."
Description: In 1978, the voters of Arkansas elected the youngest governor in America.  Two years later the same voters, in the conservative, anti-government mood which swept the nation, turned Bill Clinton out of office. The subject of this brief study of the Clinton administration is what happened in the interim:  the policy and administrative decisions Clinton made.  The answer?  Good policy, bad politics.
