Democrat Bill Clinton won the 1992 election because candidate Ross Perot, split the Republican constituency and Republican George H.W. Bush, angered voters with his indifference to rising unemployment. The article discusses the economic policy of the U.S. and the large scale problems faced by the country. The article also discusses the book "Pro-Growth Progressive" by Gene Sperling. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Dissent (0012-3846) is the property of University of Pennsylvania Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
