Reply #24: Happiest Time of my Life

[Mike03]

I remember buying Bill Clinton's book prior to the election and reading it and just feeling so happy and relieved that someone had a plan, and someone had some ethics. And I remember how happy I was to see that Al Gore would be his running mate, and how psyched I was to visit my local Democratic Headquarters back then. The "impeachment" attempt was the only negative part of those years. I still have video tapes of the debates and the McNeil Lehrer news hour when Bill or Al would be on them. My whole life has been dominated by Reagan/Bush/Bush, and disaster, war, scandal. Bill Clinton and Al Gore was the only time I felt really proud to be an American.
