大多数日子里，我依旧盼望着去履行州长的职责，如果有一天卸任了，天知道我会做什么。10月底，我和往年一样出席州博览会。那一年，我在一个售货棚里坐了好几个小时，与前来看我的人交谈。快下班时，一个穿工装裤、65岁左右的男人过来看我。接下来发生的事情给我很大的启发。“比尔，你会再竞选州长吗？”他问。“我不知道。”我答道，“如果会的话，你愿意投我的票吗？”“我想会的。我一直都投你的票。”他答道。“这么多年了，你对我感到厌烦吗？”我又问。他微笑着说：“没有，我没有，但我认识的其他人都烦你了。”我轻声笑着说：“他们不认为我的工作很出色吗？”他毫不犹豫地回答说，“他们当然认为你干得很出色，但是你每两周拿一次薪金，不是吗？”这是克林顿又一政治法则的一个典型事例：所有的选举关注的是未来。我理所当然地应该干好工作，正如所有靠工作维持生活的人一样。良好的政绩是很有用的，在大多数情况下，如果你再次当选的话，它们可以作为证据，证明你能够说到做到。

我通过祝愿以撒和以实玛利——他们都是亚伯拉罕的孩子——的后代们来结束仪式，“shalom,salaam，和平”，并敦促他们“以和平缔造者的身份前进”。仪式结束后，我同阿拉法特进行了短暂的会晤，同拉宾进了私人午餐。在长途飞行后又经历这种令人激动的场面，拉宾疲惫不堪。他一生中经历了很多，但这个仪式对他来说仍然是一个惊人的转折。他一生大部分时光是在军队里度过的，在同以色列的敌人作战，包括阿拉法特。我问他为什么决定支持奥斯陆谈判所达成的协议。他向我解释说，他已经意识到，自1967年战争以来所占领的土地对以色列的安全来说已不再必要，而且事实上，这些土地已经成为不安全的一个缘由。他说几年前爆发的起义表明，占领满是愤怒的人们的土地并未使以色列更安全，反倒使它更容易从内部受到攻击。接下来，在海湾战争中，当伊拉克把飞毛腿导弹发射到以色列时，他意识到，对于来自外部使用现代武器的进攻，土地并没有起到安全缓冲的作用。最后，他说，如果以色列永远占据西岸土地的话，就得决定是否也让那里的阿拉伯人像在1967年以前边界内居住的阿拉伯人那样，参加以色列的选举。如果巴勒斯坦人获得了选举权，考虑到他们较高的出生率，在几十年内以色列将不再是个犹太国家。如果他们不被给予选举权，以色列就不再是个民主国家，而是个实行种族隔离的国家。因此，结束时他说，以色列将放弃那片领土，但只有这么做会给它和它的邻居，包括叙利亚，带来真正的和平和正常的外交关系才行。拉宾认为他能够在巴勒斯坦和平进程结束前或刚结束时，同叙利亚总统哈菲兹·阿萨德达成协议。根据我同阿萨德的谈话，我也持相同意见。假以时日，拉宾有关西岸对于以色列的意义所做的分析，将逐渐被支持和平的以色列人广泛接受，但在1993年，这种分析却很新颖，富有远见而且大胆。在1993年同拉宾见面之前，我就很佩服他，但在那一天，望着他在仪式上讲话，听着他对和平的论证，我看到了他伟大的领导才...

书籍介绍

President Bill Clinton’s My Life is the strikingly candid portrait of a global leader who decided early in life to devote his intellectual and political gifts, and his extraordinary capacity for hard work, to serving the public.

It shows us the progress of a remarkable American, who, through his own enormous energies and efforts, made the unlikely journey from Hope, Arkansas, to the White House—a journey fueled by an impassioned interest in the political process which manifested itself at every stage of his life: in college, working as an intern for Senator William Fulbright; at Oxford, becoming part of the Vietnam War protest movement; at Yale Law School, campaigning on the grassroots level for Democratic candidates; back in Arkansas, running for Congress, attorney general, and governor.

We see his career shaped by his resolute determination to improve the life of his fellow citizens, an unfaltering commitment to civil rights, and an exceptional understanding of the practicalities of political life.

We come to understand the emotional pressures of his youth—born after his father’s death; caught in the dysfunctional relationship between his feisty, nurturing mother and his abusive stepfather, whom he never ceased to love and whose name he took; drawn to the brilliant, compelling Hillary Rodham, whom he was determined to marry; passionately devoted, from her infancy, to their daughter, Chelsea, and to the entire experience of fatherhood; slowly and painfully beginning to comprehend how his early denial of pain led him at times into damaging patterns of behavior.

President Clinton’s book is also the fullest, most concretely detailed, most nuanced account of a presidency ever written—encompassing not only the high points and crises but the way the presidency actually works: the day-to-day bombardment of problems, personalities, conflicts, setbacks, achievements.

It is a testament to the positive impact on America and on the world of his work and his ideals.

It is the gripping account of a president under concerted and unrelenting assault orchestrated by his enemies on the Far Right, and how he survived and prevailed.

It is a treasury of moments caught alive, among them:

• The ten-year-old boy watching the national political conventions on his family’s new (and first) television set.

• The young candidate looking for votes in the Arkansas hills and the local seer who tells him, “Anybody who would campaign at a beer joint in Joiner at midnight on Saturday night deserves to carry one box. . . . You’ll win here. But it’ll be the only damn place you win in this county.” (He was right on both counts.)

• The roller-coaster ride of the 1992 campaign.

• The extraordinarily frank exchanges with Newt Gingrich and Bob Dole.

• The delicate manipulation needed to convince Rabin and Arafat to shake hands for the camera while keeping Arafat from kissing Rabin.

• The cost, both public and private, of the scandal that threatened the presidency.

Here is the life of a great national and international figure, revealed with all his talents and contradictions, told openly, directly, in his own completely recognizable voice. A unique book by a unique American.--From the Hardcover edition.
