The Beethoven thing was a surprise. 

The candidates didnt really surprise me as I had said about Bill Clinton, I prefer to have a leader with obvious flaws then a leader with the appearance of perfection.

I knew the Beethoven story.  Amazing biography.

Congress doesn't really surprise me.  That's why "average" people don't want the job.
