Bill Clinton: “Yes, in a funny--[laughter]--I suppose in a funny way, if people really got a dose of the alternative, they'd like me…”

On the recordOctober 12, 1994
Yes, in a funny--[laughter]--I suppose in a funny way, if people really got a dose of the alternative, they'd like me better, but that's just a part of the process of politics. But what I want the American people to focus on in this election coming up is the choice for them: not between Democrats or Republicans or Bill Clinton or not, it's what's good for them. The fact is that I set out to do three things: to get the economy going again, to take on the tough problems, and to make the Government work for ordinary people. We have made real progress in all those areas. We have the lowest unemployment rate in 4 years; 4.6 million new jobs; the highest number of high-wage new jobs in this last year, more than in the previous 5 years. Ms. Ratner. More manufacturing, as I understand it.
