History

In the '90s, a young Homer Simpson said that there would never be a president worse than Bill Clinton, saying that lying in a deposition in a civil lawsuit is the worst sin a president could commit.[1]

Homer called Bill Clinton to ask him if he knew how he could get some Tang.[2]

Bill Clinton once answered Lisa Simpson's complaint about a band contest, in which the Springfield Elementary School Band was beaten by the band of Ogdenville school which used an illegal tactic, using visual aids. President Clinton said that he thought their tactic was wrong so overturned the results of the competition personally, giving the prize to Springfield Elementary. He then said he wanted to teach kids a lesson to complain until things go their way. When Marge pointed out that was a lousy lesson, President Clinton said he was a lousy president.[3]

Bill Clinton made jokes at a potential investors meeting at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant.[4]

He was arrested and imprisoned along with the Simpsons family, The Dixie Chicks and Elmo in Alcatraz Island after Springfield implemented the Government Knows Best Act.[5]

Some time later during the 2008 Election Primaries in Springfield, he was forced to put up signs supporting his wife Hillary, who was running for president.[6]

When Superintendent Chalmers was tutoring Bart in American history and showed him an illustration depicting all of the Presidents, Clinton was one of the few that Bart could identify, referring to him as "sex guy".[7]

He is one of the many people on "Ned's List of Laudable Lefties".[8]

Bill Clinton was running against Bob Dole in the 1996 presidential election. Shortly before the election, Kang and Kodos started to invade Earth and abducted Clinton and Dole before assuming their identities. The two of them then continued their campaigns until they were eventually unmasked by Homer. However, since the American democracy system is basically a two-party system, the people had to vote for one of them and Kang won.[9]

During Lisa Simpson's term as President, it was revealed that Clinton had kept a stash of pornographic videos at Camp David. The collection was in a large box labeled "Girlies What Ain't Got No Clothes", and Bart's friends went through it when they were supposed to be helping Bart with a "coolness report" to present to Lisa.[10]
