25. Graham has always been ready to associate himself with
Edited on Mon Nov-22-04 07:19 PM by Malva Zebrina
the high up elite in politics.

He is not a humble man--being associated with the elite was always his claim to fame and he enjoyed it and the fame that went with it. He capitalized on that. He is at heart, a politician and also one who likes to be associated with\ the powerful.

He is an old man now. I doubt he will give up his status as the "confidant" of the powerful and the rich.

He should take up preaching in a small little church in somae backwoods rural place, where his input may be valuable to the little people and the poor and get out of the limelight.

He has enjoyed capitalizing on the limelight much the same as Falwell and Robertson, although he never did establish a Christian college dedicated to getting graduates into government positions.

He is no saint but rather a very savvy politician. Why on earth would he be a guest at Kennebunkport if he did not express a desire to be there? I don't believe he was a guest there because of an overwhelming desire to council this Bush family evil empire.
