The following year, he was elected attorney general of Arkansas, and in 1978 he won the governor postion in the election, becoming the youngest governor the country had seen in 40 years. Clinton was elected president in 1992. Six years later, in 1998, he was impeached by the House of Representatives because of personal affairs, but was acquitted by the Senate in 1999. He was the 42nd president of the United States. On February 15, 1993, Clinton made his first address to the nation, announcing his plan to raise taxes to cap the budget deficit. Two days later, in a nationally televised address to a joint session of Congress, Clinton unveiled his economic plan." It was pretty successful in helping the economy.
