His father, a sales representative, died in a car accident a few months before his birth. His mother then moved to New Orleans. Bill Clinton initially grew up with his grandparents. In 1950 his mother returned to Hope. That same year she married car dealer Roger Clinton. As a member of a student delegation from the patriotic American Legion, Clinton met in Washington D.C. with President John F. Kennedy. Clinton was interested in politics from a young age. After graduating from high school, he studied international relations at Georgetown University in Washington D.C. until 1968. He then studied law at Yale and Oxford Universities on a scholarship until 1973. During his studies, Clinton was already involved in various student organizations. He played saxophone in a jazz band and supported himself as a staffer in the office of Senator J. William Fulbright. In 1968, Clinton received a "Rhodes Scholarship" that allowed him to travel to the University of Oxford, England.
From 1970 he studied law at Yale University. After receiving his doctorate in 1973, he briefly worked for the House Judiciary Committee. From 1973 to 1976 he was appointed to the University of Arkansas School of Law. In 1974 he ran for a seat in the House of Representatives, but was narrowly defeated by the Republican incumbent John-Paul Hammerschmidt. In 1975, Bill Clinton married Hillary Rodham, Hillary Clinton. In 1976, Clinton was elected to the office of Attorney General of Arkansas. Two years later, in 1978, at just 32 years old, he was appointed governor of Arkansas, the youngest head of government of an American state at the time. After two years he resigned from the senatorial office. His daughter Chelsea was born in 1980. From 1980 to 1983, Bill Clinton worked at the law firm of Wright, Lindsey and Jennings in Little Rock. At the end of 1983 he was re-elected as governor of Arkansas. In 1985 he became a co-founder of the "Democratic Leadership Council" and from 1990 its chairman.
From 1986 to 1987, Clinton served as chairman of the National Governors Association. In 1991, Clinton decided to run for president. In July 1991 he was nominated as the Democratic presidential candidate. Senator Al Gore, who was running for vice-presidency, went into the election campaign with him. Throughout the entire election campaign, Bill Clinton was in the lead by a clear margin, not least because of his successful connection to the historical myth of former President John F Kennedy. In the presidential election on November 3, 1992, Clinton won over the incumbent George H. W. Bush. He then moved into the White House on January 20, 1993 as the 42nd President of the United States of America. At 46, he was the third youngest president in the history of the United States, after Theodore Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy. Clinton's top priorities during his term in office were the introduction of health insurance, reconciliation with Vietnam, and combating drug abuse, gun violence, and poverty in the United States and the world.
On foreign policy matters, Clinton visited Germany on July 10, 1994. In Berlin he gave a speech in which Clinton, like John F. Kennedy in 1963, said in German "America is at your side - now and forever." In 1994 he received an honorary doctorate from Oxford University. In terms of foreign policy, he supported the Israeli-Jordanian peace process, which led to the peace treaty between the two countries. At the CSCE summit in Budapest in 1995, Clinton, Boris Yeltsin and the presidents of Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan exchanged views on the instruments of ratification of the START I Agreement. The Treaty on the Reduction of Nuclear Weapons with a Range of More Than 5,500 km, signed in 1991, thus came into force. In the following presidential election in November 1996, Clinton was able to clearly assert himself in office against Bob Dole. The summit meeting between Boris Yeltsin and Clinton in Helsinki ended in March 1997 without an agreement on the dispute over NATO's eastern expansion. In May 1997, Clinton traveled to Mexico on an official visit. It was the first visit by a US president to the neighboring country since 1979.
In May 1997, the "Basic Act on Mutual Relations, Cooperation and Security between the North Atlantic Organization and the Russian Federation" was signed in Paris. After a long budget dispute between the administration and Congress, an agreement on tax cuts was reached. The US budget was brought out of the red for the first time since 1969. President Clinton's second term was overshadowed by allegations of sexually assaulting government employee Paula Jones in a hotel room in 1991. Clinton denied the accusation.
For the first time in the history of the United States, a sitting president testified under oath on his own behalf on January 17, 1998. On January 26, 1998, Clinton reaffirmed his sworn statement that he had not had an extramarital affair with his intern, Monica Lewinsky. Clinton also rejected the accusation that he had incited Lewinsky to make false statements with an affidavit. For the first time in 130 years, i.e. H. Since the presidency of Andrew Johnson, impeachment proceedings have again been opened against an American president in office.
Clinton later revised his statement. However, at the end of the investigation in 1999, the allegations were not sufficient for either impeachment or indictment. In March 1998, Clinton became the first US president to undertake an extensive tour of southern Africa. As part of this trip, he announced debt relief for African reform states. Paula Jones' lawsuit against Clinton was dismissed by the Arkansas federal court in April 1998. After bombings at the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, the US fired cruise missiles at six suspected terrorist camps in Afghanistan in retaliation on August 20, 1998. In October 1998, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Yasser Arafat signed a peace agreement in Washington at Clinton's initiative. This got the peace process in the Middle East, which had been stalled for almost two years, back on track. Despite protests from the Chinese government, Clinton received the Dalai Lama at the White House in November 1998. As a result of the 2000 hacker attacks on the World Wide Web, a conference on Internet security issues began in Washington. Clinton advocated for a national security center.
On June 2, 2000, during his visit to Germany, Bill Clinton became the first US president to receive the International Charlemagne Prize from the city of Aachen. In his laudatory speech, Gerhard Schröder praised Clinton's commitment to growing together in Europe. That same month, he became the first U.S. president to deliver a speech to the Russian parliament. He offered Russia comprehensive cooperation. During his three-day visit to Moscow, he met with Russian President Vladimir Putin and privately visited former President Boris Yeltsin. At the turn of the millennium, Bill Clinton completed his term as one of the most successful presidents of the United States. Above all, his commitment to new companies and technologies gave the USA the longest economic rise in its history. His successor as US President was George W. Bush, who was sworn in as the 43rd President of the United States on February 20, 2001. On June 22, 2004, Bill Clinton published his biography entitled "My Life" in New York. The almost 1,000-page work was pre-ordered two million times before publication.
Bill Clinton underwent quadruple heart bypass surgery in New York on September 6, 2004, but he survived without incident. The former US President is committed to fighting poverty, corruption and climate change worldwide with his "Clinton Global Initiative", which held its first conference in New York in mid-September 2005. For his tireless efforts to help the poorest, Bill Clinton was awarded the German media prize "Bambi" by Hubert Burda Medien in the "Charity" category in Germany in December 2005. In 2007 he was honored with the TED Prize and in 2013 Clinton was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the United States of America's highest civilian honor, by Barack Obama.- Sarah Huckabee Sanders was born on 13 August 1982 in Hope, Arkansas, USA.

Mickey Melchiondo (Dean Ween) was born on September 25, 1970. He grew up listening to everything from the Beatles to Parliament/Funkadelic to Leonard Cohen to Prince to the Ramones to Laurie Andersen. He met Aaron Freeman in a junior high school typing class in their hometown of New Hope, Pennsylvania, and although the two did not get along at first, they soon found they were soul brothers and kindred spirits in their love for music. Upon realizing this, they formed a band right then and there in class, typing up the names of the yet-to-be-written songs they thought would comprise their first album. They also concocted a ridiculously perfect tale about a demon god named "Boognish" who appeared to them outside their classroom, offering them scepters of wealth and power in exchange for spreading the word of Him.
The two were soon spending all of their time in Melchiondo's bedroom, Melchiondo banging out songs on guitars tuned to open chords and Freeman wailing out the good word of the Boognish into a cheap microphone. Being big Ramones fans, they felt that they should share a common surname, and that is where the pseudonyms Dean (Melchiondo) and Gene (Freeman) Ween came from. Within a few years, the two found themselves opening for underground favorites like the Butthole Surfers and Henry Rollins.
Sometime in 1989, Ween opened for the band Skunk in a basement, which happened to be attended by a Twin/Tone Records scout, who offered Ween a record deal. The brothers in music immediately dropped out of community college and recorded their sprawling debut record, GodWeenSatan - The Oneness (1990) with Andrew Weiss (of Rollins Band). The record showcased Ween's broad musical range - gospel, reggae, punk, soul, funk, flamenco, psychedelic, folk, all warped in the way Ween would become notorious for. A tour of Holland followed, and soon Ween had enough buzz to make a fly jealous. A move to the label Shimmydisc produced the dark, lo-fi classic, The Pod, named after the apartment the two lived in while they recorded the material on their Tascam 4-track. The Pod was located on a horse farm. Through much of the time spent living and recording in The Pod, Melchiondo was immobile on the couch of the apartment with mononucleosis. The legend that the two inhaled several cans of Scotchguard during this time period (as the liner notes to The Pod say) is untrue. The band fabricated that as a joke and later regretted it when diehard fans began huffing Scotchguard.
Their rising underground status soon had Elektra Records knocking on the door of their little Pod, and by 1992, the duo had a major label record entitled Pure Guava, which was still all material from their time spent in The Pod, though the songs and mood on Guava were noticeably more lively and less dark than it's predecessor. They scored a cult hit song "Push Th' Little Daisies," which the two performed on MTV's Spring Break.
Up to this point, Ween's records had sounded quite lo-fi. The two felt it was time to move on up, and used the money from Pure Guava's success to build a proper studio (instead of buying expensive cars) and record 1994's very well-received Chocolate and Cheese, though both Melchiondo and Freeman did not really like the quality of the recording. Melchiondo had said that it sounded too much like "glass". The two were also disappointed that Elektra rejected their idea to have a "gay sailor" theme on the album cover and opted instead to have the torso of a shapely girl sporting a Boognish belt grace the cover; the undeniable eye-catcher that this cover was likely enhanced the CD's popularity, and to this day it remains the best-selling Ween album. Ween never even got to meet the girl, which bummed them out a bit.
Around the same time as the recording of Chocolate and Cheese, Adam Bernstein, who had directed Ween's Push Th' Little Daisies video, was directing the Saturday Night Live-based film It's Pat starring Julia Sweeney, and got Ween to play the band in the film. It was also around this time that Melchiondo started up a side project with his friend Guy Heller called the Moistboyz. In typical common surname fashion, Melchiondo dubbed himself Mickey Moist and Heller took the name Dickie Moist. The Moistboyz music was, for the most part, a hybrid of metal and punk while the lyrics focused on overtly offensive humor blended with a strange form of social commentary.
In late 1995, Melchiondo and Freeman found themselves in Nashville, recording an album of all the country tunes they had written over the years with the help of Charlie McCoy, Buddy Harmann, and many other big names in Nashville. Not far off in time from the Nashville sessions, Ween also rented a house on a beach and began recording oceanic songs in 3/4 time and drinking lots of beer. Resulting from these two drastically different conditions were 1996's 12 Golden Country Greats and 1997's The Mollusk.
It was also in 1996 that Melchiondo married longtime girlfriend Michelle Ellis (whom he met when she pulled up in her pickup truck at his job pumping gas at a Mobile Station back in New Hope in the early 90's). Ween's final release of the century was a double disc of live material called Paintin' the Town Brown. In mid-1999, and then in May of 2000 they released their most accessible batch of pop songs on White Pepper, very Beatlesque in the best way possible. By this point, the two were a cult phenomenon with more than their share of fans at both shows and online. The Fox network had the Ween bros. do all of the music for their show Grounded For Life and a web based station called Ween Radio allowed fans to make requests from a selection of over 1,500 recordings of Ween songs.
2003 saw the release of 'quebec', Ween's 8th studio album, and the strangest, most avant-garde cornucopia of bizarro since the days of The Pod and Pure Guava, only this time well-recorded and more mature, if only because quebec contains far less profanity than early Ween records.
The group has always resented being labeled as a novelty act and have stressed in many interviews that just because their music has humor does not mean it's a joke. The fact that people think they are a parody of different musical styles hurts them deeply.
Melchiondo still keeps in close touch with all the Ween fans online by commandeering the bands official website and posting on the newsgroups and visiting the Ween chatrooms. He and his wife were blessed with a baby boy in December of 2000. He is also a huge sports fan, and continues to collect sports cards, play whiffle ball, and golf on a regular basis, and also knows quite a bit about cars.- Actor
