When I found out that there was eight Presidents before George Washington, I wanted to smack somebody.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've covered the White House and been yelled at by presidents.
I'm the only president you've got.
I head a nation of a million presidents.
I have one president at a time. I only work for you.
I often say of George Washington that he was one of the few in the whole history of the world who was not carried away by power.
I was eight when he left office. Like, he had an awesome house, you know, and my cousins and I had awesome trips to Camp David and Washington. It was just all like a good time for me.
If that was good enough for George Washington, it's good enough for me.
Folks, I can tell you I've known eight presidents, three of them intimately.
Though it was never a goal in life, it has occurred to me that I've met six presidents of the United States. OK, I met four of them before they became president, including Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush, No. 43.
I've met a handful of presidents, from Jimmy Carter to Bill Clinton to George Bush to Barack Obama.
