I remember that campaign. I was 14 years old, and I lived in Houston, Texas, and my pastor came back to our Baptist church and from the pulpit, he said 'I have good news President Kennedy told us that on public-policy issues, his church doesn't speak for him and he doesn't speak for his church.

But during conventions, there's been evenings over there we haven't had more than 14 taxicabs come over there (to the convention center). That's what really set me off about doing something.
