BY BRIAN CARLSON LOS ANGELES — After recounting the success of the U.S. economy during his presi dency, President Bill Clinton said Monday night that Vice President A1 Gore is the best candidate to continue that suc cess. Speaking to the Democratic National Convention, Clinton recited a litany of achievements that happened during his presi dency, including the longest economic expansion in U.S. his tory, budget surpluses, welfare reform and changes in educa tion and health care policy. While giving the “lion’s share” of the credit to the American people, he said the economic expansion would not have been possible without his administration’s budget poli cies. “Let’s remember the stan dard the Republicans used to have for whether a party should continue in office,” Clinton said. “My fellow Americans, are we better off today than we were eight years ago? You bet we are.” Clinton praised Gore for his role in economic policy-making and said he and running mate Joe Lieberman would keep the good times rolling. “Most important, A1 Gore NEWSSERVICES FOR UNL STUDENTS Cm It (ha oblHty to roeoivo 10 msasapaa that atm aavad far 7 day*.

All the great things that Bill Clinton did and stood for have been denigrated to a large extent by the scandal.m former Nebraska senator and Joe Lieberman will keep our prosperity going by paying down the debt, investing in edu cation and health care, moving people from welfare to work and providing family tax cuts that we can affoid," he said. "In stark contrast, Republicans want to spend every dime of our projected sur plus and then some on big tax cuts — leaving nothing for edu cation or Medicare prescription drugs, nothing to extend the life of Medicare and Social Security, nothing in case the projected surpluses don't come in." He recalled a saying from President Harry Tinman: "If you want to live like a Republican, you should vote for the Democrats." Clinton’s speech was full of discussion about his policy record, but he did not mention, even indirectly, the scandal sur rounding his relationship with a young intern that led to his impeachment by the House of Representatives and eventual acquittal by die Senate. A couple of days before his convention speech, Clinton had apologized for his actions again and said his conduct was wrong. The history books probably will mark this dichotomy between Clinton’s policy sue cesses and personal failings, several members of the Nebraska delegation said. “Bill Clinton was a huge suc cess as a president on die policy front,” Lincoln Mayor Don Wesely said. “He fell from grace from his personal mistakes, but as a president he has a record of tremendous success." Former Sen. James Exon agreed. “Had it not been for Monica Lewinsky, President Clinton his torically would have gone down as one of our great presidents,” Exon said. “All the great things that Bill Clinton did and stood for have been denigrated to a large extent by the scandal.” Sen. Bob Kerrey, who lost to Clinton in 1992 when both were seeking the Democratic presi dential nomination and has often feuded with him, said Clinton would be remembered mostly for his policy successes. “He demonstrated that Democrats can manage the economy and reduce crime,” he said. “A1 Gore and Joe Lieberman deserve to win the election because this administration has delivered the longest sustained economic recovery in the histo ry of America.” Outfit Your Feet.
