[Wallace T.]

Both Sinatra and Bennett were liberals as young men. Sinatra got over it in middle age. Bennett did not. Winston Churchill had a wise saying to the effect that a man who is not a liberal at age 20 has no heart but a man who is still a liberal at age 40 has no brain.

In 1979, Bennett almost died from a cocaine overdose.

In 1980, Sinatra donated 4 million dollars to Reagan's presidential campaign.
