Zinn, Chapter 24
In this chapter, I found that despite all good things Bill Clinton supposedly did for this country, he is not one of the nation's great presidents. During his presidency he was more focused on winning with as little effort as possible rather than trying to effect social change. His main focus was to keep Republicans and big businesses happy. The main way he did this was by providing large sums of money to the military. Instead of cutting back on military funds because of the lack of threat from the Soviet Union, he kept troops stationed across the world and used military force even when it was not necessary.
