Clinton signed the North American Free Trade Agreement, expanding trade between the U.S.,

Canada, and Mexico. His presidency saw major advances in technology and the

rise of the internet age. Despite facing impeachment in 1998, Clinton left office

with high public approval and lasting economic growth.
