9. Talking about triangulation reminds me

of the Clintons. That's just how they roll. One of Bill Clinton's teachers at Georgetown told him that we should keep the parties the same, because that way, when the people get mad at one party and move to the other, nothing will change. I can't think of the teacher's name now, but he had a profound influence on Bill. I wonder if these leaders we have are all told the same things about how to rule, whether they're at Georgetown or Oxford. It's really something to me that Blair and Clinton are so similar. There must be some common influence. The teacher's name was Carroll Quigley -- I just remembered.
