“I have a friend. I have known him for a long time. His name is Steve Walther. Steve Walther was a very prominent Nevada lawyer, a senior partner in a law firm, with qualifications that are unsurpassed. I have always liked Steve very much. And he made a comfortable living. I called him once and said: Steve, have you ever considered doing something different? A wonderful story about Steve, to show what a tremendously good guy he is. He has a little boy named Wyatt. Steve married a woman and he raised their children. They were his children once married, but he had never had his own child. His wife went to the doctor, and she was nearing 50 years old and was sick, and found out she was having a baby. So late in life they had this baby, and I will never forget what she said. She said: When I had my first two babies, time went by so slowly. But she said: Now I am older and understand, and I want everything to be fine, so I can't take enough time to make sure the baby is fine. And the baby is fine. Anyway, I said to Steve: You could afford to come back here. How would you like to be a member of the Federal Election Commission? He is not a Democrat; he is an Independent. He has done things for decades with the American Bar Association, held all kinds of prominent positions with the American Bar Association nationally. He said: OK, I think it would be a good idea. Wyatt can come back and spend some time in Washington.”
