My letter to the editor of the Regina Leader Post about President Bill Clinton
Dear Editor,
Bill Clinton is coming to speak in Regina, and even though I cannot afford the price of a ticket to go see the former American president in person I am absolutely delighted President Clinton is indeed coming to our city.
President Clinton has lead a very remarkable life. From the time he was a 16 year old teenager who had his picture taken with President John F. Kennedy right through his eight years as America's president Bill Clinton is indeed an extraordinary world leader. Clinton is truly a great statesman.
As a personal hobby I have for over half of my life collected autographed photographs and letters of American presidents. When President Clinton was in the White House he honored me with several beautiful signed photographs and letters.
The key reason I admire Bill Clinton is that he came from humble origins in Arkansas and rose to become a great American president. Yet President Clinton has never lost his 'common touch' as proven recently in Bangor, Maine when he surprised U.S. troops by personally greeting them on their arrival from Iraq. Mr. Clinton's refueling stop at the Bangor International Airport coincided with the arrival of two flights carrying soldiers. That speaks volumes about the kind hearted and compassionate side of President Clinton.
Yes it will truly be an hour with history for those who get to see and hear President Clinton when he comes to Regina. Simply stated, I admire Bill Clinton !

You admire Bill Clinton, the president, or Bill Clinton, the man? Agree or disagree, there's not denying Clinton made an impact during his two term president in the U.S. However, his moral character is questionable, at best.
Therefore, one should be careful who they place on pedestals. A person is only as good as what they do and who they are when no one is watching. Clinton is a proven adulterer and liar. Because of these moral faults, one should question everything he says in the public realm.

Who care about Clinton's moral character? Clinton did not campaign to be a goody two shoes. He campaigned to make America great again and gets its economy moving again, and thats EXACTLY what he did.
