This is just a dodge. Besides, WJC 1992-2000, GWB, 200-2008. The great recession started in 2008

Now if your point is the relaxing of lending standards during Clinton's term, its more complicated then that.

But really, doesn't your response just ignore the real issue?


No, it's not a dodge. It's the facts. Clinton had the aim of putting people who couldn't afford mortgages into home ownership. He relaxed the standards and let Wall Street loose. It actually isn't that complicated. Cause and effect.


That's exactly what happened. Of course Hillary's main stream media will never tell you that but those are the reasons of the 2008 collapse.
