When he says "Clinton," I hear "Obama."

@pencert I think that is the problem why so many people are disappointed with our elected leaders, especially the supposed "strong man" presidential position, is that we want our leaders to define our time, and to give us purpose. We go about life hearing the tales and histories of our grand fathers and the myths of generations before us and we wish for our lives to be fulfilled with the same ideas of adventure and focus, but only end up with the banalities of modernity and chasing of money.
