In 1985 former PM John Turner gave a talk at my university. Afterward I introduced myself and told him my name. Without missing a beat he said, "I remember attending a dinner in your dad's honour in 1968." I still have the photo. What a true public servant. #cdnpoli

Subtext in every expression. RFK: He is going to be nothing but trouble. JFK: I think he can help. LBJ: These are children, and I would like to school them, but they won. Thank you @BeschlossDC
