I have to admit when I was 6 years old I shook Adlai Stevenson hand when he was running against Eisenhower. It was in Winter Haven and we had gone to Cypress Garden to see the show (now Legoland). My dad heard on the news that his bus was stopping downtown, and our motel was across the street. So we walked over and watched his bus come in. I actually can remember the event, he got off and there was maybe 4 people waiting, so he shook all our hands and got back on the bus and left.

Similarily, I am a life long Democrat, but I had the honor to meet and talk to President H.W. Bush and his wife while they were campaigning in NH. He was charming as was his wife. Barbara. At the time I was working for a major contributor to Pres. Bush' campaign and I got to see them for a couple of days. These were the days when nobody asked you what you were .... politically. At the time I had young sons and Mrs. Bush asked about them and what plans I had for them, she did say don't let them go into politics.
I considered it an honor to meet an American President and his party affiliation did not matter.
