A man like all other humans, born with strengths that he made the most of when many don’t.
Born with weaknesses that he worked hard to beat down when many can’t.” https://t.co/u1nsPN51AP pic.twitter.com/M1Z3inXrw7
In stirring conclusion to his eulogy, Pres. Bill Clinton honors John Lewis.

“He’s gone up yonder and left us with marching orders. I suggest—since he’s close enough to God to keep his eye on the sparrow and us—we salute, suit up and march on.” https://t.co/sVteeuYRLu pic.twitter.com/Ahe3SJWWGx
John Lewis left us some final marching orders. Let’s carry them with us into November and beyond.https://t.co/lfYwpIdZEM
