And then I was fourth.
I was caucus chair.
I served, get elected four terms, serve only three, become President Obama's first chief of staff and help him pass the ACA health care bill and the financial reform, the Recovery Act and the auto industry bailout and savings.
I then run for mayor of the city of Chicago, served two terms, most probably left with Sean Ritter at Stanford calling it the single best education system of the top 100 in America, when it was once called by William Bennett the worst in America.
And then I served as our ambassador to Japan for the United States, and in that process brought a historic meeting together between Japan and Korea, the United States, that culminated at Camp Davidson.

The country got an assault weapon ban because of it.
Nancy Pelosi became speaker because of it.
Pass the minimum wage because of it.
And kids got free community college because of it in the city of Chicago.
So will I do it?
