"I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it. Every one of these doctors said, 'How do you know so much about this?' Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for President."

Why are you wearing a sleeveless dress? That's not very respectful of your position nor of the White House.

Didn't Mrs. Obama get a lot of flack for her sleeveless dress?

37 (Jesus said to Pilate) To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth?

The point of Pilate's rhetorical question was that truth isn't absolute or objective, it's whatever you can get people to believe.

Of course it's a reprehensible philosophy, but it is in the Bible.

For someone who was a pretty good prosecutor back in the day, he sure has sold out big time.

Of course, there is the possibility that his busting of the old Mob was a set up to allow the Russian Mob to gain dominance in NYC, but I have seen no proof of that.

The Necklace thing is message sender good or bad. Ask anyone who dresses any Actress or on Air Talent. Bling works,subtle as it might be. Their is a large subset of viewers who will give the person a pass on any lie that spews from their mouths because of a shinny message object hanging around their neck.
