Bill Clinton on Obama and the upcoming general election: "I think he will be just fine ... I think he will be re-elected"

Coming up this evening at 9 p.m., Harvey Weinstein pulls up a chair in the "Piers Morgan Tonight" studio, as the primetime program continues its celebration of "Guest Host Week."

With both Tony and Academy Awards on his resume, the media mogul welcomes former president Bill Clinton for an exclusive face to face interview.

Having served as the nation's 42nd commander-in-chief from 1993 to 2001, tonight Clinton offers his prediction for the upcoming general election:

"I still think the president will win by five or six points," Clinton reveals. "I've always thought so. But it's closer than that today."

Still active in the public sector since his time in Washington, the 65-year-old Democrat details what he feels have been the incumbent's strengths to this point:

"We've created more private sector jobs in this economy in three-and-a-half years, since President Obama took office, than in the seven years and eight months before the crash, in the previous administration," explains the man who left the White House with the highest end-of-office approval rating of any U.S. president since World War II. "I think those of us who support the president have to get out there and explain what he did in rescuing the automobile industry, what he did in raising the mileage standards and the way they created 150,000 jobs."

Tune in this evening at 9 p.m., as the renowned studio head and incomparable politician discuss everything from health care to soft drinks.
