It didn’t take Bill Clinton long to break his promise to not go after Obama on the campaign trail. Bill is back making false statements and again promoting his presidency. Recently in Tyler, Texas, Bill stated “Obama ‘literally not part of any of the good things’ from the 1990s.” I suppose you could say the same thing about Hillary Clinton, after all Hillary will not release her First Lady papers so we really don’t know how involved she was. However, Bill continues to portray his presidency as Hillary’s presidency and no one else participated in the 1990’s.
ABC News’ Sarah Amos is traveling with the former president and transcribed his comments.

“There are two competing moods in America today,” Clinton said. “People who want something fresh and new — and they find it inspiring that we might elect a president who literally was not part of any of the good things that happened or any of the bad things that were stopped before. The explicit argument of the campaign against Hillary is that ‘No one who was involved in the 1990s or this decade can possibly be an effective president because they had fights. We’re not going to have any of those anymore.’ Well, if you believe that, I got some land I wanna sell you.”

For the record, in the 1990s, Obama was a civil rights attorney, community organizer, and was in the Illinois state senate.
Presumably, by “any of the good things that happened” in the 1990s, Clinton is referring to the things he did as president (except for the ones his wife now distances herself from, such as NAFTA).
Sometimes, it sure feels like the former president’s defense of his legacy gets in the way of his campaigning for his wife.
UPDATE: Obama campaign spox Bill Burton tells ABC News in response, “It appears that the man who once told us ‘Don’t stop thinking about tomorrow’ has changed his tune and is now singing ‘Yesterday’ everywhere he goes.”
