Ladies and Gents, I’m a humble fella. I don’t wear fancy clothes or put on airs. I’ve been elected to the Senate four times, but if you ask me, my job involves one thing and one thing only: to be a servant. A public servant, I’ll add, but still a servant nonetheless. My only task is to help people and do things for people. That’s it. All the rest of it is just hogwash.
