  • I attended President Clinton's commencement speech at UC San Diego in 1997 where he announced the creation of the national conversation on race relations. Alas not much came out of that group. I only got within 50 rows (~200 feet) from the stage, and the only sharp Secret Service I saw were the sharpshooters on top of the gym.
  • I never got a chance to hear Bill in person; however I am a fan of his verbal delivery and presentation skills. If you took some pictures of the secret service men, I wonder if they would have questioned or approached you? Most definitely if you were a 5'8 brunette.
