Pro Tem has to decide whether to leave Arkansas and run for president, or to remain and guard his legacy. The Arkansas constitution mandates that whenever the governor leaves the state, power passes to the Lieutenant Governor or the Senate President Pro Tem . Then he gets back home and that woman (chief of staff Wright) gets out her polls, and he's a different person. Once before when he left, the President Bill Clinton made 32 appointments and demoted his chief of staff. Bill Clinton , intensely ambitious, is torn; possibly he could be a long-shot presidential candidate. He was elected governor at 32 , defeated once, then reelected for four more terms. His accomplishments include educational reforms: he raised the sales tax, investing the proceeds in improved schools.
