Bill Clinton: “I did exactly what I said I'd do in the campaign when confronted by circumstances like this.”

I am deeply grateful for his dedication to our beloved home state of Arkansas, and proud to stand alongside him in accepting this gift.

And I think we are facing challenges today without precedent in our history.

I hope that people will still believe in our democratic system enough to stick with it and keep pushing to make it work.

I thought he was a good president.
