Bill Clinton has advice, and some criticism, for President Obama in new book - The Washington Post
Keywords:
Tags:
In a new book, "Back to Work: Why We Need Smart Government for a Strong Economy," Bill Clinton says he would have done two things differently. He would have raised the debt ceiling in the first two years when the Democrats had majorities in both houses of Congress. He also thinks President Obama's criticism of Wall Street has been harsh and counterproductive. Clinton is strongly critical of the Republicans for their anti-government ideology.

Obama and a Rorschach test presidency.
01/18/2009
The tendency of Obama as Presidential candidate to have all kinds of people project their hopes on him was how this Rorschach test phenomenon worked. This does not work well in the Oval Office. As one columnist puts it, in the President's office people tend to project their fears on Obama instead.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
