[quote="Guest"]In his 30-min infomercial: "I'm reminded every single day that I am not a perfect man, I will not be a perfect president. But I can promise you this: I will always tell you what I think and where I stand. I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face. I will listen to you when we disagree. And, most importantly, I will open the doors of government and ask you to be involved in your own democracy again."[/quote]
