Elif and Bill Clinton. Elif worked as a senior vaccines researcher for the Clinton Health Access Initiative, Tanzania

President Clinton closes the 2013 CGI Annual Meeting by reflecting on the difference between "trendlines and headlines" and invoking the words of Irish poet Seamus Heaney: "Once in a lifetime / The longed-for tidal wave / Of justice can rise up / And hope and history rhyme."
