1:24:20Now Playing“Clinton: Portrait of a Presidency” is an original documentary produced by NewsNation Films. Narrated and executive produced by Emmy and Grammy award-winning actor Blair Underwood, the two-hour film examines an unprecedented time of peace and prosperity in America under the leadership of President William Jefferson Clinton.
The documentary features key events that took place during Clinton’s presidency, and tells a story of economic renewal, compromise, peace, and human frailty. During the Clinton era, the federal government achieved the highest budget surplus in its history and American families thrived in a booming economy. Clinton left office with the American public giving him the highest approval rating in history, despite a scandal that rocked his presidency.
Viewers will hear from James Carville, political commentator and chief strategist for Clinton’s ’92 presidential campaign; Governor Terry McAuliffe, Co-Chair of Clinton’s re-election bid and former head of the Democratic National Committee; Michael Isikoff, author of Uncovering Clinton: A Reporter’s Story and the journalist who discovered Clinton’s relationship with Monica Lewinsky; fellow Rhodes scholar and former Congressman Tom McMillen (D-MD); and Dr. Jay Barth, Director of the William J. Clinton Presidential Library and Museum.
