In a profile about the president for Time Magazine, former President Bill Clinton hailed him as a "get-the-job-done leader".

Biden was named one of Time Magazine's Top 100 influential people for the fifth time. In a tribute penned by Clinton, the former president praised Biden's bipartisan infrastructure law in its pursuit to improve our roads and bridges, bring clean water to more communities, and expand affordable broadband.

In his first 16 months as President, Joe Biden has done exactly what he said he would do if elected, helping America overcome an unprecedented pandemic, rebuild a battered economy from the bottom up and middle out so that it works for all of us, and restoring our economy.

Clinton met with Biden for lunch at the White House, as Biden faces a contentious campaign season, similar to the one Clinton experienced in 1994.

Clinton praised Biden for his response to the war in Ukraine in the Time Magazine tribute. The aid package was signed by Biden last week in the wake of the invasion of the country by Russian forces. The US joined the EU and other global leaders in condemning Russia over the conflict and imposed sanctions on the country.

The former president acknowledged the tasks that remain at-hand for the Biden administration, namely in addressing the recent record-breaking rates of inflation, but said he still remains confident for a solution with Biden on the job.

Clinton wrote that the usual sound bites and answers that dominate the news won't help.

Clinton said who Joe Biden is. I am glad he is on the job.
