and what did bill clinton do? bil clinton rather than dig in and say i am just going to do what i want to do irrespective of the congress, he triangulated as they call it keep out common ground with the republican congress to do many very important things that we've already mentioned, balance the budget, reform welfare, send 100,000 new police officers on the streets of american cities and on and on and on and so there so there was a political calculation on bill clinton that he could work even with a opposition. this hasn't happened during the obama administration. there is virtually no communication between him and the republicans. i'm not suggesting for a second the republicans haven't been very critical of him. they have. but i interviewed vernon jordan and african-american who was on the record in my book by the way and has been a major figure in the democratic party for many years and he said yes they've made it difficult for this president, but when you argue with a resident who are expected to lead and thi

possible to degrade this group. >> woodruff: something very different, politics, we've talked to bill clintonut it. he's gone to iowa, mark, with former secretary hillary clinton, who a lot of people think will run for president in 2016. she has not been back there since she ran for president in 2008. is this something you're going to be watching? is it a big deal? >> it's a major deal, first time back up you see in iowa. two things, fog the earlier discussion, judy, iowa democrats are the most (indiscernible) democrats in the country. the iowa caucuses were created in 1968. the anti-war democrats could expect their opposition to lyndon johnson's vietnam policy. so hillary clinton who is priding herself on barack obama coming over to her position and arming the syrians and her toughness will be interesting. what is interesting to me is how she handles bill clinton. bill clinton -- think about this, we've had one balanced budget in 45 years, during bill clinton's presidency. we had the lowest unemployment in the history of the united states among african-americans and latinos. we had the lowes

she focused on the bill clinton years in the white house.d to say wouldn't be the great to return to the last of the 1990s. it will be interesting to see whether her message is focused on the future or if she spends most of the time talking about the past. the harkens and the clintons first became acquainted during the 1992 campaign when tom and bill were both running for the presidency. after harken dropped out it have race he endorsed bill clinton and that solidified the friendship between the two families. bill clinton and tom harkin were candidates seeking elected office and their wives were doing work in the legal world and in the corporate world. >> what was so interesting that year is that harken being the home state favorite made iowa much less important. that's the last time it wasn't a key separator for the democrats. does she have to in this speech speak directly the to what everyone is talk about whether these political trips are an onramp to running? >> i think she needs to make some sort of a nod to it. her mere presence here i

[applause] >> good things always happen when bill clinton comes to iowa. just want to say about the steak fry, this is his fourth. i remember in 2003, president clinton came. we had terrible rains but we needed toth rain. we had a drought. but it rained two or three days before and that morning. it was a sea of mud. how many of you were here? it was just muddy. it was all over the place mud. we came down here and all the candidates had spoken, bob graham and howard dean and a bunch of others. then president clinton came down. those of you who were here will remember we came up on the stage to introduce president clinton on the stage, the clouds disappeared and the sun came out . i thought to myself boy this guy has friend in really high places. so mr. president, we're thankful for the sunshine today. but we're also thankful for the sunshine of your leadership through all these years. thank you for what you've done for our country and the world. [applause] we can do this again. we can take that bridge to the future that he started building by creating those

and he's the one people are sort of flocking to still. >> he's bill clinton. >> he is. ably the greatest politician that we've covered at least -- at least around -- >> >> let's talk about hillary clinton. it's been almost seven years. last time they was in iowa was january 2008 when she was running for the democratic presidential nomination. she came in third behind barack obama and john edwards by a little bit. she came in third and now she's running once again. what do you make? >> there's no mystery in politics anymore. she's running. she comes out and says i'm back. basically she's in. i think the biggest problem for hillary clinton is going to be the fact that she has no opponent in the democratic primary because there could be this clinton fatigue that sets in. there's been criticism of whether hillary clinton should have acknowledged she's running for president even earlier than what we saw yesterday but the fact of the matter is when you're running for two years, you're at the top of the mountain. we'll will take pot shots at you. the clintons have tried to stay

. >> what do you think bill clinton thinks of all that. >> i don't know what bill clinton thinks, buton i worked for took action in syria. the bill clinton i know was prepared to negotiate but also was prepared to use force whenever necessary. and he made it clear his greatest mistake, his greatest regret, was not intervening in rwanda to prevent slaughter. >> you as a democrat, you seem like a moderate democrat, you're obviously not far left. where would you place the president? >> he's a left wing democrat with a philosophy of noninvolvement, noninterference. i think it's not even so much leading from behind, megyn, as it's not leading at all. ipg it's tragically wrong. >> it's spelled out in your new book. >> it is. >> all the best. >>> just ahead, she refused to renounce her christian faith, and now the young christian mother who once faced a sentence of 100 lashes and then death by hanging sits down with yours truly in her first interview since her release from prison. a preview of our "the kelly file" exclusive is next. plus, coming up on "hannity". >> we've seen the muslim brot
