I am not liked as a President by the politicians in office, in the press, or in Congress. But I am content to abide the judgment the sober second thought of the people.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You're president, if you conclude my judgment is not the right judgment, I abide by that, but I want an opportunity to have an input.
I have zero desire, just so you know, to be in the limelight. I don't think it's good for the country to have a former president criticize his successor. You're not going to see me giving my opinions in the public arena, until I start selling my book. I'm going to emerge then submerge.
Frankly, I don't mind not being President. I just mind that someone else is.
Unlike the general public, I rather like most politicians.
Me as president would not be like anybody else as president. Everyone does the job differently.
I don't think I have the demeanor to be a politician. I'm used to making decisions and to a certain extent being in charge.
I want no presidency; I want to do my duty. No denunciations here, or out of this House, can deflect me a single inch from going directly at what I aim, and that is, the good of the country. I have always acted upon it, and I will always act upon it.
I'm not political and I don't judge.
I prefer that people remember me as a president who made reforms rather than a president who did nothing.
I am not political as a person.
