IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – Hillary Rodham Clinton is warning the nation about taking a “big U-turn” to a Republican in the White House.

She’s citing her husband’s eight years in office as a time that helped not only the wealthy but the poor.

Clinton is back in Iowa Tuesday as Democratic rival Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont has appeared before large crowds in recent weeks.

She says President Bill Clinton’s administration created 22 million jobs, but after eight years, Republicans left President Barack Obama with an economic crisis.

On guns, Clinton says the country shouldn’t be afraid of the gun lobby, which she says doesn’t represent most owners of firearms.

Sanders has said he would take the country to “the middle” on guns, noting rural gun owners who obey laws.
