VIDEO ABC Bill Clinton Network Exclusive: Proposes Debt Impasse Deal, but Fears GOP Too Hamstrung by Ideology

"What I'd like to see them do is agree on the outlines of a 10-year plan and agree not to start either the revenue hikes or the spending cuts until we've got this recovery underway," Clinton added. "The confidence that the Republicans say would be given to investors with a budget plan, they'd get whether we started this year or next year or the year after that, for that matter."

Bill Clinton Says U.S. Lacks Planning Needed for Global Success

Clinton said the nation needs to find a better mix for the proportion of the U.S. gross domestic product that is represented by federal spending and taxes.

“We can’t afford to spend 25 percent of GDP on government expenditures,” he said. “I don’t think we can afford to tax at only 15 percent of GDP, either, which is about where we are.”

He called for a 10-year plan that would allow Americans to have a better sense of “what we think would be a competitive level of revenues and a competitive level of expenditures.”

A very productive day at Bill Clinton's jobs summit Day 1

President Clinton announced two other commitments in addition to the Kiva/VISA microloan agreement I posted on earlier today:
1) Onshore Technology Services, a rural outsourcing firm, will create 1,000 jobs over the next five years in rural Missouri, including Joplin, the town, which was ravaged by the recent tornado;

2) The American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) said it would work with financial institutions to invest $10 billion in capital from its workers over the next five years for infrastructure projects. The labor group will invest up to $20 million additional to making public buildings more energy efficient.

Bill Clinton's group offers recipe for economy

"The banks in America have well over $2 trillion in cash not committed to loans. Now, there's nowhere near $2 trillion in loan demand out there but there's some that is unsatisfied," Clinton told the gathering of 750 leaders of business, government and nonprofit organizations.

Clinton opened the two-day conference by announcing

Transcript Bill Clinton on NPR today

Next week in Chicago, Clinton is hosting the CGI America meeting, with a focus on job creation and economic growth in the U.S.

And because there's no possible segue from such important work to a show as silly as ours, we'll just come right out and say it: We decided to quiz the former president and Rhodes scholar about the My Little Pony show. The famously well-informed leader answers three questions about Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Twilight Sparkle.

Bill Clinton: Urgent update on our work in Africa

Knowing what a difference food security and a stable income can make in an entire country's future, I am profoundly moved by our results so far. I hope you're as motivated as I am to dig a little deeper to extend these programs.

If you can make a gift in the next 7 days, your donation will go twice as far and help transform twice as many lives during this dollar-for-dollar match.

I started this Foundation with the belief that everybody can make a real difference, and at this crucial moment for farmers in Africa and around the world, it couldn't be truer.

Thank you for doing your part to help us realize our shared vision of a more peaceful, prosperous world.

Sincerely,
Bill Clinton

A message from Bill Clinton

I’ve endorsed Janice Hahn for Congress in California’s 36th Congressional District, and I need your help to get her elected.

I think Americans get it. They understand that extreme solutions are not the right way to get out of a tough situation, like the one we face today with our economy. Janice Hahn has proven herself to be a champion for cleaning our environment, protecting a woman’s right to choose, and expanding access to healthcare. She will fight to protect Medicare and Social Security, not seek to dismantle it for the future generation of Americans. She will bring people together and build consensus in Congress to focus on job number one: putting Americans back to work.

this week Bill Clinton will be gracing delegates at the Jefferies Global Healthcare Conference with his insights into the health industry.
This is seemingly a topic close to Mr Clinton's heart these days as, post White House, he set up the grandly titled William J Clinton Foundation. That includes the Clinton Health Access Initiative, which helps people with HIV/Aids access life-saving drugs. Since it began, it has helped more than 2m people get the medicines they needed.
