The political status legislation which emerged in Congress in 1990 and 1991 did not receive the support needed for enactment into law during my tenure as Attorney General.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Any attorney general who is not an activist is not doing his or her job.
I was not a politician.
What I have come to realize over the twenty years when I have worked in different roles as a legislator is that no legislation is as good as the enforcement of it.
I was never supposed to make it to Congress. I was a staff person.
We didn't pass any constitutional amendments that affected the executive branch while I was governor.
The presidents I served under don't have anything to do with my politics.
I'm the only P.M. of which that can be said - 'His legislation was never declared invalid in the High Court.'
I didn't serve on a committee that dealt with foreign policy.
At the end of the day, there's not an office complex anywhere on these grounds that I wouldn't be honored to have as a sitting member of Congress.
I didn't leave the Congress; I was expelled.
