Michele Bachmann, opening her remarks at CPAC, said running for president is “really one series of humiliations after another.” One of those, Bachmann said, is learning where John Wayne was born.
Here’s Bachmann’s full quote:
“Well I thought you would be interested in knowing that running for President of the United States is really one series of humiliations after another. But it’s also a very educational experience. And i learned three things when I was running for President. First of all, I learned where John Wayne was born — that’s very important. And then second, I learned the day that Elvis Presley was born — these are vital issues to our republic. And third I learned: Never forget the three things that you learn — very important when you’re running for president.”
