2. Thank you! Bookmarked to view a real president in action, even
for such a somber event.

3. it was a beautiful eulogy, and beautifully delivered,
by a great speaker. Just listening to Bill Clinton speaking, reminds me what a twit is currently Commander-In-Chief. I wouldn't be surprised if Bill wrote the eulogy himself.

4. I had absolutely no intention of watching the eulogy, today.
I just happened to switch to it as BC began speaking and stayed, enthralled. I was happy I did. Inspiring and uplifting are only two of the many words I could use to describe the proceedings, many inadequate. Watch this if you can, even a second time--you won't be disappointed.

5. I believe he is (arguably) the most naturally gifted
public speaker ever to have been POTUS in my lifetime. He is nowhere near my favorite President, but the man can speak!
