The “comeback kid” and his whole team of Clintonistas are getting a big welcome at Georgetown University next month to celebrate the 1992 election of Bill Clinton over former President George H.W. Bush. The school’s Institute of Politics and Public Service at the McCourt School of Public Policy told us that Clinton will keynote the events over three days marking the 25th anniversary.
Dubbed “Clinton 25,” the event will also examine how Clinton beat Bush and the presidency of the former Arkansas governor who attended Georgetown as an undergraduate student in the late 1960s.
He was elected freshman and sophomore class president, but lost his bid for student body president.
In addition to Clinton, his former aides will attend including, James Carville, Paul Begala, Mandy Grunwald, Rodney Slater, Maria Echaveste, Rahm Emanuel, Minyon Moore, Bruce Reed, Madeleine Albright, Strobe Talbott, Thomas “Mack” McLarty, Erskine Bowles, and John Podesta.
