Young are we?

In 1993, 1994 and 1995, it was not said we had a "strong economy". 1993 and 1994 in particular saw slow growth out of the recession that had begun to adversely affect the housing market, job base and consumer spending in 1988.

Apparently you do not recall the recession of the early 90s, or you would remember that.

Ignorant of history are we?

From 1933-1936, we had "spectacular growth" ONLY because of how much things had crashed in the period from 1929 to 1932. No one said we had a "strong economy" despite growth by leaps and bounds, because we had a long way to go.

To answer your question, No. Whenever Democrats have had to be elected to fix Republican economic idiocy, it is not said we have a "strong economy" the very year that Democratic President takes office.
