You are so right. this stupid "legacy" concept has become a monster. When did the "legacy" go from being the record of your accomplishments (or not) as they naturally occurred in the course of your term in the Oval Office, to something that you scramble to create, at any price, even that of your own principles, so that you can get those memoirs on the best-seller list the sooner?
