20. There are a few problems with that.
Clinton economics, while looking good at some levels, such as national debt, was setting up for a big economic collapse, which we are still yet to fully experience. He handed the administration over as the stock market was crashing. Bush administration has overseen the FED trying to pump it's way out of the recession, but the recession will win out eventually and it seems to be sooner than later.

Also, Clinton economic policies like NAFTA and WTO have led to the outsourcing of jobs, loss of manufacturing.

Another problem is that it was her husband's presidency, so she can't run on that. Also, people don't want to look back, they want to look forward.

If she wants to speak to how we are going to deal with the recession about to hit, and I did hear her mention the R word Saturday night, that's another story. That's what she needs to do, but more corporate economics is not going to trickle down to the middle class.
