David Boren was the Dem behind Clarence Thomas and he was from OK -- Thomas was not from here. He was picked by Pres Bush because of his ability to move people in the Senate and it worked. Then Clinton became President, Boren resigned from the Senate (we got Jim Inhofe) to become President of The University of Oklahoma here in Norman, and then got rid of Anita Hill from the OU Law School falculty. Doesn't get any better than that.
I didn't know any of that. Very interesting.
