Bill Clinton is the 42nd President of the United States, known for presiding over economic prosperity in the 1990s and for his impeachment over perjury and obstruction of justice related to the Monica Lewinsky affair.
Clinton's 1998 statement 'I did not have sexual relations with that woman' became a paradigm case in philosophical debates about the distinction between lying (asserting a known falsehood) and misleading (making a technically true but deceptive statement) — directly relevant to Kantian prohibitions on deceit.
