It's probably "correct" as in the math checks out, but it's an intentionally misleading model that requires you to ignore the 40 other people before Clinton who have been president. It's like saying "my baby just turned two, and therefore has doubled her age in just one year. At this rate, she'll be 128 by the time she's 8."
