The ‘New Democrat’ By: Derrick Huhn

The Governor The presidential election of 1992 was one of a long shot for Bill Clinton. He was the governor of a small state and had great political ambition but with little national recognition, his chances of winning the presidential election were slim. With his running mate Al Gore, they fought and challenged the current U.S. president George Bush who at the time had the advantage with the power of incumbency behind his back.The presidential election of 1992 was one of a long shot for Bill Clinton.

With his running mate Al Gore, they fought and challenged the current U.S. president George Bush who at the time had the advantage with the power of incumbency behind his back.

The Controversy Near the beginning of the election year, Clinton received much media coverage when he took an interview with 60 minutes to defend allegations of an extramarital affair brought upon him in February of He and Hillary assured the public even though they had marriage problems in the past, they were perfectly happy with their current marriage status. This situation demonstrated Clinton's great resistance to adversity, and proved he could change this negative media to help him in his campaign for presidency.Near the beginning of the election year, Clinton received much media coverage when he took an interview with 60 minutes to defend allegations of an extramarital affair brought upon him in February of He and Hillary assured the public even though they had marriage problems in the past, they were perfectly happy with their current marriage status. This situation demonstrated Clinton's great resistance to adversity, and proved he could change this negative media to help him in his campaign for presidency.

It’s the economy, stupid! During the middle of it all, voters felt George Bush did not focus enough on the economy and that’s when the Clinton campaign coined the phrase "It's the economy, stupid." Even though this was a great advantage to the Clinton campaign, it was an up and coming TV appearance that gave him a head start in the race for the presidency.During the middle of it all, voters felt George Bush did not focus enough on the economy and that’s when the Clinton campaign coined the phrase "It's the economy, stupid."

The Turning Point In an effort to reach young and African American voters, Clinton appeared on the Arsenio Hall Show. To show his "New Democratic" side, Clinton, equipped with a pair of dark sunglasses and saxophone, played two songs along side with the show's band. Hall complimented the former presidential candidate saying he was "Glad to see a Democrat who could blow something besides an election".In an effort to reach young and African American voters, Clinton appeared on the Arsenio Hall Show.

A New Record His appearance on FOX was a turning point in the election race against President Bush. It was also a turning point in America's history. After his appearance, America saw its highest voter turnout of 18 to 24 year olds since the twenty fifth amendment was passed.His appearance on FOX was a turning point in the election race against President Bush.

Sweet Victory In the end Clinton used his image of youth to convince voters to take a change and vote for a democrat for the first time in 10 years. He not only achieved success for his campaign but also in voting amongst the younger generations. The FOX appearance showed America the "New Democrat" Clinton's campaign had hoped to create and voters responded, which in the end sealed the victory for the former unknown governor of Arkansas.In the end Clinton used his image of youth to convince voters to take a change and vote for a democrat for the first time in 10 years.
