“On Bill Clinton: "If left to my own devices, I'd spend all my time pointing out that he's weaker than bus-station chili.

“Failure of success is not race-related; it's not socioeconomics-related; it is really predictable, based on principles that are laid down by God the Creator by which we are supposed to function. If we find them and obey them, success becomes inevitable.
