I must admit I like him because he is the only big name politican I have ever met. He came to Hofstra a couple years ago during the primary and I went with their family and met him. He is too young looking to be a President though. If his last name was Kennedy though, the idiots would come out and support him, and he actually got where he is on his own, his daddy didn't buy him his Senate seat.

I like that he worked his way, up, too. And, although I try not to let my personal feelings affect my votes, I think it's awfully cute that he and his wife go to Wendy's for their anniversary every year, since it's where they went for their first one, being too poor then to go anywhere else.
I met Clinton once (he came to my workplace) and I must say, the man's charisma slams into you like an electric charge. I think people are born with that- I don't think you can learn it.
Somer, you've read McCullough's terrific bio of Truman, I assume? I have a very funny picture of myself from a children's theater tour I did years ago, of me in the dressing room before the show, dressed as a giant goose, reading that biography.
