Coaching from
Past Presidents
One night, Bill Clinton was awakened by George
Washington's ghost in the White House. Clinton saw him and asked, "George,
what is the best thing I could do to help the country?"
"Set an honest and honorable example, just
as I did," advised George.
The next night, the ghost of Thomas Jefferson
moved through the dark bedroom. "Tom, what is the best thing I could do to
help the country?" Clinton asked.
"Cut taxes and reduce the size of
government," advised Tom.
Clinton didn't sleep well the next night, and
saw another figure moving in the shadows. It was Abraham Lincoln's ghost.
"Abe, what is the best thing I could do to help the country?" Clinton
asked.
"Go to the theatre."
