Bill Clinton is an American politician who served as the 42nd President of the United States from 1993 to 2001. A member of the Democratic Party, Clinton was previously the Governor of Arkansas before winning the presidency. His time in office was marked by economic prosperity, the implementation of welfare reform, the signing of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and efforts to reduce the national deficit. Clinton's presidency also faced challenges, including his impeachment in 1998 following the Monica Lewinsky scandal, though he was acquitted by the Senate and completed his second term.
