True story. Maybe 15 years ago or so, my daughter who lived in Washington, DC was standing in one of those interminable lines at the DMV. There was an older woman near her who seemed familiar. Eventually one of the DMV employees recognized the woman as retired Sec of State Albright, and tried to convince her to cut in line. Ms. Albright refused and then spent the next hour or two chatting with all of new fans in line with her. You got to respect her.

Amazing woman. Too bad she could never run for president. She was far more of an American than most of the ignorant chuckleheads that are luckily born here and completely talentless.

RIP.
