We should all spend some time of our life doing service to our country. To me, I would give up a couple of years.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Whatever shape my future service takes, I look forward to doing my part to help get our country back on track.
In my opinion eight years as president is enough and sometimes too much for any man to serve in that capacity.
I did what any American could and should do: serve his country in its time of need.
If the Army helped towards my tuition fees I would then give them four years of my life.
I wouldn't miss this opportunity for anything. For the chance to work on these conservation issues, to serve my country, to work for this president, I'd do it all over again, every single minute.
I'd spent 25 years in government when I left the Defense Department back in '93, decided I'd go spend the rest of my career in the private sector, and then the president tapped me to come be his running mate. And it's been a remarkable experience. I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
I still make sure to go, at least once every year, to a country where things cannot be taken for granted, and where there is either too much law and order or too little.
Surely a long life must be somewhat tedious, since we are forced to call in so many trifling things to help rid us of our time, which will never return.
It's silly talking about how many years we will have to spend in the jungles of Vietnam when we could pave the whole country and put parking stripes on it and still be home by Christmas.
I'd always step up to the mark to serve the people of the country.
