BABY BOOMER CONNECTS WITH PRESIDENT CLINTON

Psychologist Kathy Marshack was a little nervous before meeting with President Clinton.  She was a guest at a party Bill Clinton attended in a private home in Portland, Oregon. She was quickly put at ease by Clinton as they talked about something they had in common – spending a night in jail!

Dr. Marshack, who is a nationally recognized author, brought a book she’d recently contributed to, “Sixty Things To Do When You Turn Sixty.” She brought the book as a gift for Hillary Clinton since Senator Clinton will be celebrating her sixtieth birthday this year.

President Clinton was wearing a “Hillary Clinton For President” pin when he graciously accepted Dr. Marshack’s book for his wife’s sixtieth birthday.  No doubt that’s the one thing Hillary wants when she turns sixty - to become President!

The essay Kathy Marshack wrote for the book is entitled “Go Directly to Jail.” In it she discusses her experience when she spent a few nights in jail as well as the valuable lessons she learned from it. Bill Clinton told about a night he spent in jail as well!  The baby boomers shared a laugh as they looked back on their unusual stories.

Dr. Marshack was also impressed by comments Clinton made about Al Qaeda that evening. He talked about bullies and the need to be aware that bullies only desire to destroy us.  Kathy reflected, “This certainly has been a tough lesson for me personally.  I have worked my entire adult life in a field that promotes negotiating a win-win solution.  So it has been a very tough lesson to learn that there are some people that will not quit until they crush you.”

Dr. Marshack’s “Go Directly to Jail” essay is available on her website – www.kmarshack.com.
