Now in Little Rock Arkansas. The Clinton Center was on my list of things to do on this trip. It is a striking building and enables one to remember the Clinton presidential years Jan 20th 1993 to January 20th 2001. He was the 42nd President of the United States. I looked for documentation of his impeachment (December 19th 1998) but did not find it. Inspite of the impeachment proceedings he was not removed from office. (Lessons to be learned from to-days interest in the Trump presidency).
The center contains a wonderful testament to Bill Clinton’s values, his success on the international scene (tributes from world leaders like Nelson Mandela) and in some progress on US citizens social issues like health care, employment and education. There is a mock up of the Oval Office and of the Cabinet rooms.
