You've got to have an ego as big as Mars to want to think that you, of all people, are better than anyone else to be president of the United States. People that vain, they want their place in history, and they want to be able to control how much they'll be worshipped by future generations.

The boyfriend of the student music teacher came in: Hey, kids, this is a real Air Force pilot. I asked him something to the effect of how it felt to be dropping bombs on children in Vietnamese villages. And it got very icy in there all of a sudden, and finally the teacher said, Oh, well, Eric reads a lot of newspapers. Next question.
