Even if we don't agree on politics, except for a few Republican Presidents, it's cool meeting powerful people.

I met Carter and Mondale because a friend of my dad's (my dad was in politics) in the village we lived in, was Mondale's sister in law. I was friends with 2 of his nieces and campaigned for both. Lucked out.
