He gained recognition as a strategist during the 1992 Clinton-Gore campaign, which led to Bill Clinton becoming the first Democratic president in over a decade.

He joined forces with James Carville to advise Clinton on key issues such as the economy, healthcare, education, and natural resource protection.
