Meet the Press and Tim's presentation of politics was awesome to experience, his inner fire for the workings of politics was inspiring and uplifting to those like me that wanted to be involved in politics, as well as helpful for many Americans to understand D.C..
I have to say his book "Big Russ and Me" is an amazing lesson to be passed on and probably should be used in schools as well as homes. My favorite quote from the book,
"Now that I'm a father, I sometimes wonder how my son will learn the importance of good work ethic............One way or another, if I'm not able to teach that lesson, or to direct him to a place where he can learn it, it will be a loss for both of us -- for him as a son, and for me as a father." (p.72 Big Russ and Me)
RIP Tim
