With the election coming up, some are reminiscing about elections and presidents of the past. Recently, one letter from over 20 years ago is resurfacing.
In 1992, Bill Clinton won the presidency from incumbent George H.W. Bush. When Clinton was inaugurated, Bush sent him a letter. It has resurfaced all over the Internet.
Saba Gul says --- A long time ago , in a land far away , politics had grace . George H. W. Bush's letter to Bill Clinton on leaving office. President George H. W. Bush
"I wish you great happiness here," Bush said. "I never felt the loneliness some Presidents have described."
Bush warned of tough times and criticism Clinton may not feel is warranted. "I'm not a very good one to give advice; but just don't let the critics discourage you or push you off course."
Bush ended the letter assuring Clinton that he was on his side. "Your success now is our countries success," he said. "I am rooting hard for you."
Regardless of how this letter compares to the current election, it shows that Bush was gracious to Clinton even after losing.
That folks is what you call a class act .

ReplyDeleteI think between us we have said every rotten thing we can say about Trump. I hope it helped folks to see what an ass he is.
And you are so right Bush was gracious and supportive and that is how politics used to be among gentlemen.
