(15,480 posts)I'm lookin' at you Slick Willie. One of my kids worked for the DNC and then on Clinton's first inaugural committee, so I got to attend the inauguration weekend activities in the VIP section. Prime seats for the parade surrounded by southern California big donors; stood next to Faye Dunaway at the fantastic outdoor concert at the Lincoln Memorial. "Aretha Franklin stands with Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson and Diana Ross in front of the Lincoln Memorial during a pre-inauguration event for Bill Clinton in Washington, D.C., on January 17th, 1993."

Sat next to actor Rob Lowe (Dr. Joel Fleischman/Northern Exposure) at a party and shared a taxi with Tennessee Democratic Congressman Tanner & his wife.
Everyone was so excited and jubilant - but over the years, Bill threw it all away - in his personal life and in his pro-corporate policies.
