<\/strong>Former President Bill Clinton spoke about 166su\u2019s successful partnership with industry<\/a> and the community on Monday while visiting 166su for a campaign rally for President Barack Obama.<\/p>\n

In addition to highlighting Central Florida\u2019s simulation industry<\/a>, Clinton also spoke about 166su\u2019s involvement with the medical city at Lake Nona.<\/p>\n

Monday\u2019s event was the third presidential campaign event held at 166su this year. In July, first lady Michelle Obama campaigned for her husband\u2019s re-election at the Venue. Rep. Paul Ryan visited the Venue last month for an event supporting his and Gov.
