It really will be the end of an era and I'm not looking forward to it. The longer he troads on, the longer I can pretend our grandparents/parents generation isn't drawing to a close. I agree, plus his presidency (at least to me) seems like such a small footnote in his career compared to everything he's done since then that people all around the world will remember him for his deeds of goodwill. The UK would do well to have a former statesman like him imo 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
