37. I love Booker

With Patrick I can't help but remember how he and Obama shared the same speech writers and gave similarly motivational and inspirational talks when campaigning. Booker, to me is far more demonstrably charismatic but less rhetorically so. I would be hard pressed to find anybody else who took down a decade long career and machine politician while in the process rescuing neighbors from fires out of burning buildings and personally showing up at elderly resident's homes to plough their snow. If anybody talks the talk and walks the walk, it's booker. Hell, I'm changing my vote! Lol
