Hey this is my first time here I don't really understand how this works but my question is who could I possibly compare Bill Clinton to? Also how could I describe his view of power?

Thank you very much

There is at the moment a very similar thread running on James Madison - UR in the same class?

Anyway, the way to do this is to read up a little on Clinton and what he was about, list the KEY THEMES in his presidency, and then find someone who ticked the same boxes.

(The answer, btw, is JFK.)

On Clinton and power - you MUST check out the 'third way'
Some more ideas (which you may think right or wrong) in this pupils' essay.

What are some differences between JFK and Clinton. For similiarties I have their charisma, good looks, military mishaps, and sex scandals.

Check out their foreign policies.
And Clinton lived long enough to be disgraced.
