Why is Bill Clinton one of my favorite presidents? Is it
because he actually improved our economy or kept military expenses to a
minimum? You would think so, however, no, those are not my top 10 reasons for
keeping Bill Clinton in my list of favorite top 2 public figures. All it took
was a few wonderfully crafted and meaningful sentences:
"Politics
gives guys so much power that they tend to behave badly around women. And I
hope I never get into that." ~President Clinton addressing a female as a
Rhodes Scholar at Oxford.
"When I was
in England, I experimented with marijuana a time or two, and I didn't like it.
I didn't inhale and never tried it again." ~President Clinton
"What's a
man got to do to get in the top fifty?" ~Mr. Clinton’s reaction to a poll
journalists formulated, ranking Monica’s scandal as the 53rd most significant
story during the past 100 years.
"It depends on
how you define alone…" ~ President Clinton, during his testimony in 1998
regarding the Lewinsky scandal.
“"There were
a lot of times when we were alone, but I never really thought we were." ~ also
Mr. Clinton, during his grand jury testimony
"It depends
on what the meaning of the words 'is' is." ~Mr. Clinton- testimony
"You know,
if I were a single man, I might ask that mummy out. That's a good-looking
mummy" ~ President Clinton while eyeing "Juanita," a recent
archeological finding of an Incan mummy showcased at the National Geographic Museum
As you can see
from the above quotes, that we were blessed to have a true leader for 8 years
prior to our economic crash. Not only did he look out for those who desperately
needed employment, but also those who simply wanted something to do [ a man of
equal opportunity]:
"The economy has produced 6.1 million jobs since I became president, and if Michael Jordan comes back to the Bulls, it will be 6,100,001 jobs."~ President Clinton.
"The economy has produced 6.1 million jobs since I became president, and if Michael Jordan comes back to the Bulls, it will be 6,100,001 jobs."~ President Clinton.
He took care of
himself, and taught us as a leader, no matter what kind of position you are in,
be prepared for the future [George W. Bush/Obama etc.]: "Well, I don't
have much job security." ~Bill Clinton response in 1992 after being asked why
he still plays the saxophone.
It’s not just the above video, but more in regards to how he can be found- re-watching himself & laughing- in a public location [I can’t disclose] in Atlanta immediately after filming his TNT show.
