BILL CLINTON ON PRESIDENTS DAY
It was President’s Day in February, 1995 and I was meeting with President Clinton in the White House. He burst into the room and gushed “I just met with the reporters and they asked me ‘if you could ask your idol, John F. Kennedy, one question on President’s Day, what would it be?.'” I wondered what the rest of the story would bring. I was an innocent in those days, only vaguely aware of the rumors of his past…and future. “I wanted to say ‘how did you do it? Was there a secret stairway or closet I don’t know about?’ But I couldn’t so I asked ‘what was it like to be president before people were alienated?'”
