Specifically, without a dissertation, from memory only,
he raised the top marignal tax after Reagan closed some of the loopholes, thereby eliminating investment capital and by raising capital gains, he discouraged hard capital investment.
He had an opportunity for insurance reform as it relates health care, instead tried to develop a single payer system and squandered an opportunity to modify our nation's largest tax drain.
His monetary policies also floated the reason for the internet investment bubble and may have contributed to the Enron scandal.
Those off the top of my head.
I can think of no international diplomacy successes, and no I don't consider Bosnia a success.
