some words of inspiration
So I was reading this article in USA Today that was really an interview with Robin Williams. It's really a very good interview--I like Williams more and more, even if we aren't always on the same philosophical page. At any rate, what he said about the 2008 presidential race was just so priceless I had to share:
"The comic belives that 2008 could bring a female candidate into the president race. And who better thatn Oprah Winfrey.
"'It would be great to see her in a debate,' Williams says. 'It would be a pay-pr-view debate, har and Condoleezza Rice. And once the Stanford stuff drops ...' He holds out his hand, as if halting traffic. '"Girl, I tell you, mm, mm."' Two brilliant black women going at it. It would be amazing. And it they have a talent section, I know Condoleezza would win that because of the cello. No one has seen Oprah do an intretive ballet.'
Yes, but she could do a scene from Beloved.
'It would be great if she did a scene from Beloved while Condoleezza played the cello. YOu could pay for the whole election that way just with the CD, DVD, ancillary rights--and the sweater.'"
Now that would be fun!
