"It's the economy, stupid" is a slight variation of the phrase "The economy, stupid" which James Carville had coined as a campaign strategist of Bill Clinton's successful 1992 presidential campaign against sitting president George H. W. Bush. Carville's original phrase was meant for the internal audience of Clinton's campaign workers as one of the three messages to focus on, the other two messages being "Change vs. more of the same" and "Don't forget health care." Clinton's campaign had advantageously used the then-prevailing recession situation in the US as one of the campaign's means to successfully unseat George H. W. Bush. In March 1991, days after the ground invasion of Iraq, 90% of polled Americans approved of President Bush's job performance.〔Agiesta, Jennifer. (Approval Highs and Lows ). ''The Washington Post''. 2007-07-24.〕 Later the next year, Americans' opinions had turned sharply; 64% of polled Americans disapproved of Bush's job performance in August 1992.〔 ==History== In order to keep the campaign on message, Carville hung a sign in Bill Clinton's Little Rock campaign headquarters that read: #Change vs. more of the same #The economy, stupid #Don't forget health care. Although the sign was intended for an internal audience of campaign workers, the phrase became a de facto slogan for the Clinton election campaign. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「It's the economy, stupid」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
