5. The truth with ZERO embellishment

Members of Congress have two options.

1). Stick to the agenda, be succinct

2). Play to the TV cameras (one of the most extreme examples being Gym Jacket Off Jordan)

So it was Bennie's BREVITY that truly impressed me. There was no bravado, no fluff, no theatrics.

"Here's what you've done to date. Ample cause for my calling you to resign."

It was a master's class in taking care of busimess.
