Also, it’s not up to you to decide whom people will mourn nor how. It’s certainly not up to you to decide who’s worthy of being someone’s hero. Just fucking look at whom you idolize, for fuck’s sake.

That’s what I want, is some extra work to do, but it’s so important that I’m willing to do it, and we’ll do it right, and we’re gonna put leaders from other countries on, leaders that are very distinguished leaders, and we’ll have a board. > > He continued, “And one of the people that wants to be on the board is the UK former prime minister **Tony Blair** – good man, very good man – and some others, and they’ll be named over the next few days, and it’ll be quite the board.” Yeah., it’ll be quite the board.
