[applause] they had to use them by the end of the semester. It didnt give them an extra one . They turned out in such big numbers to vote, dont take it personally. It has nothing to do with you is we have some very special guests here today. First i want to mention theres an article i tweeted out last night mat compliments you as a student body. From virginia business magazine, and it is about how liberty how you as students have gone the extra mile to serve others and fulfill the Christian Mission of the school. I really think youll enjoy it if you take time to read it. By heather hayes, a local reporter who wrote for the magazine, and so if you get a chance, take a look at that. Youll be brought of proud of yourselves. Steve strang is here, the founder of charisma magazine. A businessman and author. Also his newest book is god and donald trump. Steve is charisma magazine ive always heard has a bigger circulation than christianity today. I believe thats still true. He is just doing an incredible work in the christian world, and so many ways. Thank you for being here, steve, and also, we have corey lewandoski, political operator, a commentator for fox news, cnn. We became good friends during the campaign because he was at the former Campaign Manager for Donald Trumps 2016 president ial campaign. He is coauthor of the book let trump be trump. Everybody knows if you dont let him be him, youre going to get kicked out. I think thats a good title. David bossie is also here. David and corey have been on news shows all week, fox and other networks. Talking about their book, but david has served as president of Citizens United since 2001, as deputy Campaign Manager for trumps 2016 campaign, he was ranked number two in the politicos top 50 most influential people in american politics. He is coauthor of the book i just mentioned, let trump be trump. Producing 25 documentaries since 2000 and coproduced six feet temperature length films. So please welcome our guests to liberty university. Steve, corey and dave. [applause] we know you have exams coming out so well try to get you out early today. [applause] is this the second combo you have done with center for law and government . This is the second convocation. Robert heads the center for law and government. Former congressman from southern virginia, and he only stayed in, what, four years . Six years. Got out. I wish theyd always get out after six years. Where do you want me to sit . Okay. Told know sit here. All right. Ill let you guys lead off and just tell us, steve, start with you. Tell us what you have been doing with charisma magazine and what tell us about the new book and just anything youd like. Charisma magazine is a spiritual magazine but be devote ore october issue to trump and pressured articles from christian prophets who predicted he would win against all odds, and he did. That led one thing to another until i wrote this book because i thought it was a important to talk about the spiritual aspect of what is going on, not just the politics. Well, you supported cruz first, right . Boo. Ive head so many christians come up to me and tell me recently, i supported cruz. I thought you were crazy when you supported trump. But you turned out to be right. And you were right. Said things like david Like Supreme CourtJustice Gorsuch and you see trump recognizing jerusalem as capital of israel. You have to mike evans, big supporter on that issue, is calling trump the modern day equivalent of king cyrus from the old testament. Want to comment some. I agree. In fact for me that was kind of wife it made me vote for trump, because he is not the kind of person that evangelicals would more someone more like Mike Huckabee is more my speed, but a friend of mine said that he believed that god was raising him up like cyrus, and the bible says, and isaiah 45, i have called you even though you did not know me. It was like the people in the bible were not perfect at all, but yet god used them and used a pagan king from persia to send his people back to jerusalem. So many recent republican leaders, president s and otherwise, have made like jesus said, many clean the outside of the platter but inside i keep going back to that passage, and i think absolutely right. They say, they seem look the good, decent people, good family people, but when it comes down to look how they acted when trump won. They have been trying to sabotage him ever since and they just dont act anything but christian. Amazing thing is he is championed the values you and i would most of the students would believe. In better than people who had better credentials, like george w. Bush who was a good man but he didnt come through on a lot of stuff. Trump is coming through again and again and again, and i believe that gradually the people who dont like him are going to come over. Thats why i think when it comes to politics, jesus separated. He said render into caesar things that are caesar and i always say that. [applause] but you cant judge somebody according to how good they are and decide on who youre going to vote on based on that it because were all sinners and jesus said if you ever lusted after a woman in your heard, youre just as guilty as the guy who has had adultery. So all the same. You vote for the one who is going to vote the way you think is best for your country, and i think thats what screen evangelicals did. Thats so much hypocrisy where people have so minute stuff in their past, the pounded their finger an someone else. They just didnt get caught. We believe people can change and i document that ten years ago, something happened to Donald Trumps life. He started cleaning up his act. Started watching christian television, started thinking about the future, and i believe that he is a very different kind of man than some of the bad stereotypes were familiar with. I was the only one willing to go on tv and say that after the access Hollywood Video came out. Corey, welcome back to liberty. You were here with President Trump last year . Mr. President was here and i was here with what is now our president of the United States and such an honor and privilege to be here, thank you for have us. Has the campus changed a little bit. Its amazing. The growth from a year ago when i was here, the dorm back behind is wasnt completed. What you have done at this school and across the country is just amazing, and thank you. Get the credit. If i werent for at the students and their attitude, we were talking back stage about how you were at harvard recently. Tell us about that. You know, i grew up in a town called lowell, massachusetts, not a town of privilege. Im a blue collar guy who had the opportunity to be on an amazing ride with the most extraordinary candidate in the world, and Harvard University called me and said, would you come up and be a visiting fellow . And i went up there, and the difference between what president fall well has done here and what they did at harvard is night and day. Its amazing how you understand what the real america is like and when you go to cambridge, massachusetts, they live in fantasy world. They are so entitled up there. They think that everybody owes them. Theyre the smart its, the greatest, the best, and what happened and what you guys have here is so different, and let me just give you one example. About five years ago they wouldnt let me slow my truck down in front of cambridge, massachusetts are because they hate everything that trump standded for. They hate at the fact he is a populist and wants to make America Great again no a globalist, wants to make sure that the promises he made on the campaign trail are fulfilled as a president. They want rhetoric, they want things that make other countries great again, and its so refreshing to come to a university where people care about their country again and its okay to say merry christmas. And i have to tell you about your president. This is the honest to god truth and jerry knows, the president knows im a truth teller. The day the access Hollywood Tape came out on donald trump, i made one phone call. The only one i made. Because cnn this, president of cnn called me and said i need you to come ontive right away. I called president falwell and i said, jerry, i need you to go on television in the next flee minutes. Whatnot too you want me to say . Because every time as a Campaign Manager to donald trump, i called the falwells and the falwell family, they showed up. They were there as a steadfast supporter of the president when nobody else was, and jerry and becky came out and they helped campaign, and they saw in donald trump, before anybody else did, what this country needed, and he said to me and i repeated it, he said my father always said, were not electing a sunday school teacher. Were electing the next president of the out. And i went on television and i said that and that hit home to so many people. Because what president falwell just talked about is the hypocrisy of the left. All these people who make accusations against other candidates, only to find out theyre own house is not in order and what we have finally seen is some of the things are college back to haunt those very same people, and im so messed and privileged to be here at liberty university, thank you, president falwell, for the invitation. Thank you. Did notice the only time the president calls me to go on tv is when he is in real trouble. True. He says, im a warrior. I dont know where he gets that from. But our students are the ones that deserve the credit for what has happened here at liberty. Its them that makes liberty a special place, and [applause] we thank you guys for that. Thank you. Brenda wallace from lynchburg, a brave heart, pearl harbor, we were soldiers, sectat, he spoke at commencement a few years ago and went to his sons graduation at duke the next day and said he couldnt believe the difference in the attitude have students he said the same thing. At duke there was, were entitled, were the elite, we deserve the the best life. He said at liberty it was all about what to do to serve others and thats going to make you guys much more successful when you get out of here and you get in the real world, because those are oattributes that lead to true success, and i have to believe those guys at talk harvard are going to be working for you guys one day. Thats the truth. President falwell is so right and so smart, and ive had the privilege of going to many of the socalled ivy league stools, stanford and oxnard, the same sense of entitlement. What you have here is something so very special that you dont have a sense of entitlement and what you will achieve here because of your education at this institution, and the values that you have come out of here with, are so much superior than all those entitled individuals at those Ivy League Schools who think that the world owes them. Thats because the leadership that president falwell and the university has here. So im so thankful that you are here, and i have an 11yearold daughter and she said to me, daddy, i want to go to harvard some day. Said, baby, youll never go to harvard. We dont care about the ivy league freaks. Never go to happen. Said youre going the greatest school that ive ever known, which is liberty university, and i was here [applause] some day, my 11yearold, who i love more than life, is going apply for a school and im going to call president falwell and say, please let her in because i love her and shes going to sit in these very same seats you do and get the faith and the love and the blessings that you guys have here every day, because without that you cannot be successful. And thats what you get at this university. So thank you. Corey called me last january on a saturday im not sure who called at 11 00 in the morning and said can you be in iowa at 5 00 . We jumped on a plane. I said you have to pay for the plane. The lawyer says liberty cant pay for it. They paid for the plane and we were there and we showed up nor rally, full auditorium like this, and i said what am i here for . They said youre the moderator. I said, oh, okay. So, just trump and me went out on stage, and i asked the questions. Luckily had on text, sean hannity and he gave me some ideas. We one oplane that night and i think i talked too much about liberty when i introduced him because the next morning, we were in another city, getting ready to do another rally, he said, jerry, after the rally im going to send you tout des moines to do some interviews. I said, i must have talked to much about liberty. Then we did the second rally and i toned it down and afterwards he was like, who the hell needs trump. Jerry is the smartest guy i know. Thats what he said. Excuse me my language. But he said after that [cheers and applause] after that he said, i want you to do the rest of the rallies now. So i learned my lesson after the first one. I never told you that story. Anyhow, david, welcome to liberty. Thank you for having me. We have not got top know each other but you were here a few weeks ago. I was just here down for constitution week about a month or so ago, and enjoyed my time here. I came here the first time in 1987. When i was just a kid. I was in my early 20s. Working for senate mommity leader bob dole when he was running for president , and came here, and that weekend we had Pat Robertson with your dad and it was an amazing experience, and ive been blessed to be back many times since. Actually have a junior in high school, so were going to need a little help next year ourselves. She is actually a tremendous student. Much better than her dad. And were going to be looking to send her down here and we have were blessed with four kids. We live right outside of washington, dc, and montgomery county, maryland, and maryland usually doesnt get that big a round of applause, ill be honest with you. Fairly liberal state. But thank you. And so i had the distinct honor and privilege of being the deputy Campaign Manager. I came in with steve bannon and kelly an conaway and ran the kellian conway and ran the general election and was the executive director of the president ial transition team. Helped in any little way of building the cabinet and recommending a lot of the folks for jobs, and trying to build out the white house. So it was a tremendous experience. I was there. I walked into the president s office in trump tower the night that the billy bush tape came out, and i believe the first phone call he made after he spoke to governor pence was to you help was on the phone with you when i walked into the office, and so i know what a special person and a special relationship you have with the president , and it is you have been a rock to him, and it has been a blessing to him, your relationship with him. I want to su thank you for that. You have seen him and help him threw a lot of issues over the years, and you can see his courage just this week with recognizing jerusalem as the capital, and what he has done he is the 13th president to say he would recognize jerusalem, but the first president to actually do it. And so its been an amazing week of leadership coming from the white house. So ive had a privilege of knowing the president a long time, and maybe well get a chance to visit about that. Any questions . Dave, you have known among the three guests, you have known the president longer than anyone. Got to know him in 2010 through steve wynn and want adviser to hem as he approached the 2016 election, and i guess my question is, the message of nationalism, America First, is that was that sincere . Is that something a lot of people say trump is just about making money for himself, about his brand. How sincere is he in that message and has he been talking about that message from the beginning . And then obviously carried out into success. Thats a great question, and if you look back throughout 20 or 30 years of videotape that is out there, videotape is what we used to use its a you watch Oprah Winfrey interviews from 20 years ago, you see this president talking about bad trade deals, and what it takes for america to succeed economically around the world, and you see him talking about these blue collar issues, and we called him the blew collar billionaire because he connected with people, and so this has been something that has been true to him for a long time, and youre right. I got to know President Trump not politically, and thats one of the things in our book, let trump be trump we try to talk about. We try to talk about the man, and his incredible kindness and how generous he is to all those around him. Im just going share a personal story. I got a chance to know him. Steve wynn is a friend of mine, famous Las Vegas Casino magnate, and a successful businessman, and another marylander, i might add. He was helping me raise money for Childrens Hospital in washington where my son, not just at that hospital but at many hospitals, had a series of four brain surgeries for a brain aneurysm and then two open heart surgeries. And he struggled for life as a baby, and i wanted to be able to help other children and other parents through raising money for Childrens Hospital so the others could have what my son had, which is the best health care in the world, and it is through that steve wynn said, dave, im going to introduce you to donald trump who owns the property where you hold that charity event. He just bought it, by coincidence. He introduces me to then mr. Trump. Meet with him, and he is so kind and in the first meeting, he gave so much and allowed me to become part of his family, really. It was an amazing thing that he befriended my children over the years and helped me raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for Childrens Hospital. Why do you think media doesnt give him 0 more credit. The Mainstream Media wants to build him into this character, this caricature of somebody they want, a person who is a figure that people will dislike, and so i through this book and corey and i through let trump be trump tried to connect people with the man. Its the hind the scenes stories of the campaign. He tear otherwise faces often on the airplane and we were looking with or without a parachute we would have liked to get all the plane but he had an amazing experience with this man and he is just so kind and generous, and its wound of the things that one of the things we wanted to i talk about my sons journey in the book. Corey, talk about the media. Its safe to say he had an an antagonistic relation with the media but not always that way. How much as trump been able to take the antimedia sentiment that is shared by so many of his supporters, so many of americans has he been able to turn that intoed a an advantage and can you talk about the tweets . And what that was like from january 15 for 18 months, as sort of trump established himself as the frontrunner. Look, some day there will be a book that come outs that says the tweeted that were never published. The greatest book ever written. If you think the ones he has put out already are good, you should see the ones we never put out. Its amazing what candidate trump had the opportunity to do with the fake news. He held them accountable for the first time in our lifetimes. We had a fighter who through this social media activity, facebook, twitter, instagram, has 100 plus million followers and can bypass the fake news, and just this week, not just during the campaign, where he fought back every tight and said theres a beauty from npr. Thats beauty. What he did and what he had done is he has called out the fake news. This week we saw an abc reporter give a false story about donald trump and general flynn, and only through Donald Trumps sheer very rossty of attacking the media did abc recant the story and suspend the journalist. This we we can saw a story that bob mueller has spine subpoenaed bank reports, six hours later donald trump said that is not true. Do they recant the story . But never in our lifetime have we had such a fighter in the oval office, and what the American People saw and many of you were here last year, when candidate trump was here, was a man who wakes up every day and fights what he believes in. I have to tell you one story because its so important. One of the greats things that ever happen in my life. President trump is elected and he gets sworn in on january 20th and calls me and says, corey, he says, corey, i said, yes yes, sir, he said you never come visit me. This is february of this year, and he says would cow come see me the oval office, irsaid absolutely. Never been there im a poor kid from lowell, madd. Walk into the oval office and theyre the leader of the free world behind the desk and to his far right, my left, i this Vice President of the United States, and i stand at the precipice of the oval, right outside, and he looks at me and says, get in here. And i walk in to those hallowed grounds, the oval office, and he says, my man, come here. And he stands up and he gives me a hug and turns to the Vice President of the United States and he says, mike, do you know who this is . And the Vice President says, yes, sir, thats corey. And he says, mike, do you know who this is . And the Vice President says, yes, sir, thats corey lewandoski. He says, mike, this is the guy who said you could be the Vice President of the United States. I said, well, sir, 60 Million People said that but im with you. And mike pence because i was the chairman of the Vice President ial Selection Committee stood up and said, corey, will you take my chair . And i said, mr. Vice president issue cannot do that. He said do me a favor. I said ill do anything you ask. He said, would you pray with me. As we sat in the oval office, our leaders asked for gods help and forgiveness as they lead this great country and ive never been so humbled of anything in my whole life, and mike pence and donald trump are such great leaders, and mike pence sat there and we prayed together, the president of the United States, the Vice President of the United States, myself, and nobody else in the room, and then after the Vice President finished praying because he was going to represent our country at a speech, trump hid him on the shoulder and said, get the hell out of here. Which is the greatest. Ill tell you. It is still amazing. So uncanny, we experienced almost the same thing. Went up there in february, and we went and Vice President pences office first and what struck me is he has an open bible on his desk all the time and he reads its every day, and he so warm and welcoming and personallable, and we go into the president s office, and the president was the same way, just had a red button on his desk in a box, and i said whats that for right there . He said, everybody thinks thats the nuclear button. He pushed it. And a butler came in and brought him a dr. Pepper. And so my daughter an important button. My daughter caroline said mr. President you look like you lost weight him said, yeah, they wont feed my anything here. He said i dont know if i haase lost weight but theres no scale in the white house. Used to snack all day long but he said now they give remember on the plane he ate three cheese burgers. I remember on the plane asked be what thought of president obama. Said seems like he is trying bring america to its knees and he stopped and said, corey, he yelled back, jerry thinks obama wants to bring the country to its knees. I dont know if mayor that. Im get offering the sun. But anyway, at the end of the meeting with trump, after 30 minutes he said the same thing. Yall get out of here. And he thats just the way he is. Makes everybody feel like hes their best friend. Jerry, the fact that they pray in the oval office, they ask for gods blessing and gods forgiveness, should never be understated. Thats the side of our leaders that the media doesnt want to show. That is the side where they ask for the strength of god to give them the ability to lead our great country into a path which is not been led in for the eight years of the previous administration. The media doesnt want to talk about that but donald trump and mike pence are men of faith and they have god in everything they do, and it is never reported how important that is for this administration. The faith thats right. Our faith in christ is really what unites us cruise all political lines. You talked about redemption earlier. Was with pat could dell and he said Martin Luther king was asked in the 60s, why are you a Southern Baptist . After they had been for segregation and havent been on your side him said i am and i always will be because its a redemption religion. The media tries to divide us, black from white, rich from poor, name it, just every category, women from men, and it is something that if we as christians can get past that, and love each other, love everybody, then i think then well see our country change. Steve, tell us about your book. Let trump be trump is a great book. Im a third of the way through it and some of the story you heard today are in the book and you want to get it. Their book is really more a lift the hood and look under and see what is going on. Mine is more of an overview, and Hillary Clinton wrote a book called what happened and my book answers the question. And that is that god intervened in this election. In the direction that our country was going. There are millions of christians praying and god answered our prayers in a way we did not expect, with the person we didnt even necessarily like initially until we got to know him more, and im trying to say that god is sovereign. You talk about the Mainstream Media. They dont talk about god at all, unless it has something to do with right wing politics. But god is sovereign no matter who is in the white house him lifts people up. The bible says that. And i believe that god put him in the white house. In fact former congressman bob mccune said this week i was at meeting and she said, if you cannot see gods hand on donald trump, you are deaf, dumb, and blind. And i believe that. One of our favorite speakers here. Robert, i guess if its for both of you. Its been said that trumpism is bigger than trump, and i wonder what you think about that. This president will be up for reelection in 2020. And you see what is happening to him in the Approval Ratings and that sort of thing. Remains to be seen what happen betweens now and then. But my question is, after he is gone, whether he runs again and serves out a second term or not, does what his message, does that go beyond him . Bigger than he is . Ill go quickly. Donald trump was elected as a change agent and i think thats going to continue to be that movement, the trump movement, is that washington, dc has been broken for a long time, and it doesnt work for the American People. Think we can all see that. No matter what age you are, you can be just as frustrated as anybody else that washington, dc is not working for us, and donald trump told the American People during the campaign that, i am a change agent. Im going to go and fix the broken status quo and i am going to kick in a couple of doors and im going to flip over a couple of desks and make the establishment uncomfortable. And we can see thats the pushback that he gets around washington, dc for the last ten months. Theyre a little bit afraid of him and what he will do, and so i believe this tax reform package, which just passed the senate last week, is really the first big legislative victory of the president but kind of a straw that might break the camels back. Maybe with one big victory the president is going to be able to succeed at very big ways over time. Think that the trumpism continues well President Trump is gone. Talk about this a lot in the book. Let trump be trump. What he did during that election was unparalleled. The way he saw the pulse of the American People. The way he tapped into that. Not just here at convocation but across the country. People were turning out in droves, and in the book we talk about how the Mainstream Media never gave him credit. Heard this all the tame others the Campaign Manager, people would wait eight hours in a blizzard to get into a donald trump rally in massachusetts and theyd say, those people arent going to show up on the polls. These people arent real. Donald trump wont be success. Jeb bush is a little rusty because he hand run for years. Donald trump had never run for 70 years, nose part of the shrimp talk about in the book how we completely disemboweled the republican establishment, dedestroyed the genius inside sheer very very rossty of his schedule. It ignited people who had not been involved in politics for 30 years. Go for michigan, pennsylvania, wisconsin, where republicanes dont win anymore and they said were tired of the lies in washington and we write what david said. Was has been so broke and donald trump said i will fix it. For the first time any lifetime, and yours as well, we have a businessman in the oval office who is not stymied by 30 years of washington, dc dogma of the with a its always been done, and one quick story is, we have this great trading partner, called taiwan. Maybe you heard of it. And the president of taiwan, she calls up the white house. Calls donald trump, in trump tower, right after he is elected and he is sitting at his beautiful desk on the 26th 26th floor and pratt falwell knows and ive been there many time and the woman says thats the president of taiwan on line one, and 19 of the guyed from foggy bottom saying we do not recognize taiwan. You cannot take that phone call help says, excuse me in the president of taiwan. What do they want . Sir, she shed like to congratulate you. Sir, do not take the phone call. It will destroy our relationship with china. Hello, binge. Bing, because he doesnt care. Were putting America First now and he is not beholding to the special interests in washington. Thats what we write about. He is the blue collar billionaire, man who fund his own campaign and doesnt care the way it used to be done because he wants to do what is right for america. Another example of that he was meeting with a group of evangelicals last year, maybe 2015, and i said we like you, mr. President , but we cant support you because of the Johnson Amendment. Were not allowed because of the irs. We all had tax exempt organizations. We cant endorse you. He said what are you talking about they planned to him the Johnson Amendment that lyndon john sowssed a oto a bill in the 50s and took away the free speech rights of people like me and pastors and he said, im going to get rid of that. And sure sure enough, he kept his promise and another big thing he did for evangelicals he gave pastors ands have nonprofit organizations, like this one, the right to speak have political free speech and you might have something to comment about that. This is significant because ive never even heard of a politician talking about the Johnson Amendment, yet its very youre the nonprofit world. You know about it. Isnt it interesting how fast that donald trump got it. He didnt have to draw him a picture. He figured it out quick and said, its wrong and fixed it with executive action but also says hes going to get legislation through, and i believe he will to fix it permanently. And this is just an example of the leadership that he is giving this country which just confounds everybody. But it gets back to what i said in my book, is that god had a plan and he raised him up for such a time as this and he is continuing to bless him. Johnson amendment is one of the first things talked about when he came here. 2 corinthians. Other than 2 corinthians. Actually thats a lot of people say it that way. I dont know if John Robertson is here but his family influenced the president s thinking on the Johnson Amendment a lot. Phil robertson, his grandfather, spent a lot of time in his ear about it and it was i was there a lot when they were talking about it. Always a wonderful thing to have that family around him. Back to something you said, corey, about career politicians. I think the American People heave first those guys out and dont want them knee. The question is whether the Republican Party will get start and stop running them against democrats. In virginia they ran one against the democrat and he lost, and i think its going to keep happening over and over. We need some more nontraditional candidate. How to recruit people from the private sector do what robert hurt did, come in, serve for six years and get out of there. I can tell you, thats great idearobert. Get you off this campus maybe again one day. But, look, i actually got my start in politics on a College Campus in 1984. Which makes me really old, i know. But it is i was there for Ronald Reagans reelection campaign, at the university of maryland, and it was a tremendous, tremendous thing to cut my teeth and get interested in the conservative movement, and i hope that each of you will consider getting involved in your communities, getting involved doesnt have to be in politics but figure people out, think about it, ask questions. That is the most important thing you can do as young folks and be active and engaged. So, look, cory, im just going to wrap up. Corey and i talk about in our book that the ferocity of the campaign and schedule. It was run by about it was six or ten of us that were the core group, and the president was 70 or 71 help he was running, and he drove us into the ground. His physical stamina, his motor ran at an unbelievable speed it and was fed by fastfood. I dont know if you have seen the media explosion over his diet of mas had four food groups, mcdonalds, kentucky fried chicken, pizza and diet coke. That was the fuel for the campaign. We have funny stuff, whether were progression the president s pants on the plain wheel he is still wearing them. Had to be very okay. Or our diets or just how we would fill five or six stadiums a day, ten, 15, 20,000 people a day, three different time zones, across the country, day in and day out, and Hillary Clinton was having trouble filling a high school cafeteria. And that was when we knew, we knew, we had the finger on the pulse of the American People and what election day might beholds. Thats great advice. Take note. Get your careers established, do something outside politics and then when youre ready, go in and serve for just a short time and then go back to what youre doing, youll have a better perspective for what is needed for the country than anybody who spent her while lives in politics. Believe that. President falwell, youre so right. Career politicians destroyed our country. It was never meant to be a lifestyle. We just saw congressman conyers resign in disgrace. He was elected in 1962 or something. Hes 65. This is insane. Go out, have a productive career, create jobs, do something of value, dont go to washington and say, this is the best job ive ever had because thats what happens, and they take these guys out of washington and pine boxes because they leave when the 97 years old if theyre lucky.
