For Example, A Man Who Might Not Have Enormous Charisma, Who Could Be President 40 Years Ago, And Who Was A Deserving President, I Don't Know That George Washington Would Be A President Today, I Don't Know That Abe Lincoln Would, I Don't Know That Roosevelt Would.

I'm Not Trying To Push My Political Agenda On Anybody. I'll Do That Like Any Other Citizen By Giving Money To A Party Or Candidate I Believe In.
