and former Presidents Obama, and Clinton, what would you ask them?
I think I would ask for each of their advice on how to keep faith and hope alive, and fear at bay, even in unsettled times? How they personally do that as well. I still struggle with this so much even though I have been in therapy for many years.

(5,324 posts)that Former President Clinton could have a coherent conversation & at the same time be working on the NY Times cross word puzzle in pen. I'd love to have that kind of mind.

So that is interesting about Clinton.
Doing a cross word puzzle and deciding world events.
Comes in handy when being a POTUS.
Yes that would be neat to have such an intellect.

(81,136 posts)I would think all three of them would talk about faith, service, duty, gratitude.
What an honor it was to be the president of the United States, working for the people.
Their love of country, Americans, democracy.
The gratitude for everything that was given to them.
The love, respect, opportunities to meet people from all walks of life.
Their gratitude for being of service to the US.
Their sense of duty and responsibility.
And their rock solid belief in the future of the USA and its people.

Hilary Clinton when she was New York's U.S. Senator. My sister was the finance director of a not for profit nursing home.
