... I wish more elected officials and former elected officials were like him. I'm so sick of the #MeMeMe people who seek praise and public recognition, rather than doing the work and helping people and causes for their own sake, and for unselfish reasons.

Those are the people that I respect the most... those are the individuals who deserve our praise and gratitude.

(I just wish he'd stop using foul language when he's being interviewed.)
