Clinton: Obama Doesn’t Get the Credit for Saving the Economy

‘When you inherit the level of economic catastrophe that President Obama inherited, it was a really touch-and-go situation’

CLINTON: "I personally believe that the steps that President Obama took saved the economy. He doesn't get the credit he deserves for taking some very hard positions. But it was a terrible recession. So now we've dug ourselves out of it, we're standing, but we're not yet running. So what I am proposing is that we invest from the middle out and the ground up, not the top down. That is not going to work."
