People would be amazed at how much time passed between his second and third terms.

He was born in a beautiful red brick house which is surrounded by jet black wrought-iron gates. Its situated some 30-50 feet from a major thoroughfare called Bloomfield Avenue and diagonally across the street from a  
5-store decaying strip mall with a combo Dunkin Donuts/ Baskin Robbins. Buses often drive past the residence and leave his statue in large clouds of black exhaust.

Some say that’s a fitting tribute to any politician.
