“In the past, in order to continue as a candidate, a serious candidate, you had to be in the top three finishes in Iowa. You had to be in the top two out of New Hampshire.

“(Barry) Bonds' records must remain part of baseball's history. His hits happened. Erase them and there will be discrepancies in baseball's bookkeeping about the records of the pitchers who gave them up.

Besides, the people who care about the record book - serious fans - will know how to read it. That may be Bonds' biggest worry.” PeopleKnowsMaySaidBookCareAmericaWorryKnow HowRecordsHappenedFansChangedSeriousBaseballYesterdayWeatherWho CaresPitcherEraseDecreeWell SaidDiscrepanciesBookkeeping Author:George Will

“It's important for me to say something, and with wisdom if I can. I don't think there's anything wrong with just going out there and having fun and goofing around. I want to experiment with that too. But yeah, I feel like I have a responsibility to produce something hopeful, and maybe inspirational to people. When people come up to be and tell me how my music has changed their lives, that only encourages me to take it more seriously.
