Clinton said he wants Obama to assure the people that America will surmount this problem. But at the same time, the former president said in an interview broadcast Friday on ABC's "Good Morning America" that "I like the fact that he didn't come in and give us a bunch of happy talk."
He also said he believes "you will see some good economic news form the stimulus fairly soon."
For his part, Obama has said he thinks the country will get past the recession, but that it will be a long slog.
