Bill Clinton: “It's bigger than almost anybody in America lives in, but it's a beautiful house. You know it was started in 1792.…”

On the recordFebruary 20, 1993
It's bigger than almost anybody in America lives in, but it's a beautiful house. You know it was started in 1792. President Washington authorized it to be built, and then before it was finished, actually, President Adams and his wife moved in here. So it's been here a long time. Mr. Jennings. Right behind us here, of course, we can't go in this morning, but it's really one of the most beautiful rooms, the Blue Room, looking out onto the Jefferson Memorial.
