The only 'power' the pretentious have is a belief in false 'authority'. When this goes, there is literally nothing left..which is why people cling to it 'for dear life'.. It is the illegitimacy of the self-appointed, thus false, 'authority' that is the core of all Human failings, not the core of the Human being itself.. Born into a false ideology, we are conditioned to reject truth, and thus also the truth of ourselves, which perpetuates the pretentious 'society' and produces the very uncivilised 'civilisation'.. All the genuine ever ask for is genuineness; genuine 'civility', in the knowledge that the false, corrupt and pretentious 'society' is doomed to its own self-annihilation.. "There is nothing more necessary than truth, and in comparison with it everything else has only secondary value. This absolute will to truth: what is it? Is it the will to not allow ourselves to be deceived? Is it the will not to deceive? One does not want to be deceived, under the supposition that it is injurious, dangerous, or fatal to be deceived."

Not to start a fight.. But according to an American accountant… The crown creates $3 for ever $1 spent on the crown. It is the #1 reason tourists come to England. It literally pays for itself and HRH gave away millions year to dozens or more of charity. So the monarch has no power, pays for it self and donates millions and still people hate the institution.

Too bad there are so few elected officials who share her devotion to duty, her discretion, her willingness to accept and embrace changes in society, her openess to different cultures, and her basic decency.

She and the monarchy represents history, continuity, to their peoples past. She holds no political power, but she was the face of her nation and governmental partners. We have in the US what some nations split. A president and a prime minister, or a monarch and a prime minister. Our American president wears both hats. I sometimes wish we had a parliamentary government, under a constitutional monarchy. It stabilizes a people I think.

As a Brit that's lovely to hear from President Clinton. Always liked him and love the humour of President Bush since he stepped down. Pity we don't see that humour and human side of politicians more when they are in office it would endear them to people. I'm in my 50's and yet can still remember the Silver Jubilee when I was 9 years old. Incredible to think that a monarch can serve for that length of time. Rest in Eternal Peace Queen Eilzabeth II.
Clinton and Bush two war criminals that should have been sent to the Hague years ago for their war crimes, disgusting that those people are still at large.
Maybe if they stopped being corrupt and bombing poor countries for their natural resources they would be even more popular. How many times was he on the Lolita Express?
+Chris. Some politicians do have that touch. Ronald Reagan in particular comes to mind. Or Sir Winston Churchill. Queen Elizabeth II only beat Queen Victoria by 6 years (the latter reigned from 1837 to 1901). But still, that was an achievement.
They've both always been charmers. Clinton, especially. It's largely why he was elected by such huge margins both times. We've long had a tendency to choose presidents based on how they make us feel rather than their acumen or qualifications. Of course, once they're in office, any bad policies will obscure said charm. Though his policies and decisions were largely bad, President Bush, for his part, is a tremendously decent human being. He was just in a bit over his head. It's partially our fault for putting him there, I suppose. That said, to his credit, he should be remembered for what he *didn't* do. After 9/11, he could've demonized the Muslim community. America was looking for a scapegoat. He defended American Muslims.
I'm an American and generally feel monarchies are absurd and outdated. But losing the Queen was such a tremendous loss for the entire world. Her grace, charm, and dedication was simply unparalleled. Fortunately, we were blessed with 70 years.
@@manmaje3596 Be that as it may, that doesn’t make the idea that people are born and anointed by a mythical higher power to lord over people any less absurd.
I'm an American and generally feel monarchies are just as legitimate a form of government and that democracies are inherently weak and lend themselves to populism, civil strife, and division all to easily.
Sorry my friend. Her position, by definition, is powerless. She certainly had SYMBOLIC power, sure... but only if she never expressed her actual political convictions. That's not any sort of power I would want.
She had absolute power, head of parliament, head of the prison service, head of the church of England, head of the armed forces, head of the nation, head of the Commonwealth, head of the postal service, head of the police, she could drive a car with out a licence, drive without a licence plate, decide the royal dress code, could not be charged of any crime, anywhere on earth, could dismiss a prime minister, go without a last name, take legal custody of her grandchildren, skip paying taxes, travel internationally without a passport, avoid jury duty, ignore speed limits, celebrate two birthdays, keep her finances private, not bow or curtsey to any one, go cashless, put her face on multiple currencies, give knighthoods, have access to the royal jewels, choose the royal menu, access all of the royal residences, issue royal warrents, approve or disapprove a royal marriage proposal, declare war, grant a criminal pardon, have a private atm, owns all the Swans on the river Thames, has dominion of all dolphins in British waters, can create lords, can form governments, had her own knights, can fire the entire Australian government, had her own breed of horses, and being the head of the church of England technically has ownership of every English persons soul, that is why we are called subjects not citizens, no power? She was the most powerful person on earth, GOD SAVE THE KING.
@@tallthinkev you have to factor in duration, and influence, as well as wealth and connections, respectfully to potus. When she became monarch he was 9 years old.

President Clinton really meant what he was saying, and I could tell. Queen Elizabeth was a very admirable woman, and anyone would be lucky (and maybe more) to be in her presence. This was a wonderful interview with one former leader talking about another.
She was a great leader who gave her all to England. The world will miss her. Would love to know which heads of state will be attending her funeral. It would be remarkable to see her last achievement as a means of strengthening bonds between countries.

Correction: Not since Dwight Eisenhower but rather Harry Truman. Elizabeth II became Queen in 1952, and Truman was still President of the United States (Eisenhower was elected in 1952 but was of course sworn in on Jan 20th 1953) although she met Truman in 1951 while she still Princess Elizabeth.
Wow. Very revealing interview. I got a great sense of the queen and her intelligence, shrewdness, and determination underlying the larger projection of unity. She was a woman that kept the show on the road. I can see that. She worked in her royal duties pretty much until the last few days of her life.
Queen Elizabeth certainly had power. Contrary to Bravers" assertion. Neither do I understand where Braver came up with the idea the queen was "a cutout figure to many Americans". Certainly not to this American.

'A cut out figure.' ??? Huh, Rita is a bright lady, but that was a bum statement. The Queen is and 'was' a wonder. Glad to have lived during her reign and time. God Save the Queen.
She was simply commenting on the way most Americans see her. In other words never having met her their view inevitably lacks depth. It wasn't a "bum" statement. It was perfectly fair and reasonable. comment.
She was on maternity leave at the time and LBJ had Vietnam going on at the time so travel, even to Europe might have been a bit dangerous. It was just a wrong place at the wrong time sort of deal.
She came to our School to cut the ribbon of our brand new sports centre building. Unfortunately only a few students got to see the Queen. I got to see it on news but it was huge for The Queen to come to our violent stricken secondary school (although things changed when we graduated 2007). Kids at that age absorb misinformation or propaganda like a sponge so many students acted like we didn't care but I personally changed my mind about the Queen after her visit. I knew the importance of her role and you don't have to be a royalist to love the Queen for her duty to the country. Us minorities admired the queen probably more so than some.

He was/is a genuinely nice man, but terrible political ideas!
As a Brit that's lovely to hear from President Clinton. Always liked him and love the humour of President Bush since he stepped down. Pity we don't see that humour and human side of politicians more when they are in office it would endear them to people. I'm in my 50's and yet can still remember the Silver Jubilee when I was 9 years old. Incredible to think that a monarch can serve for that length of time. Rest in Eternal Peace Queen Eilzabeth II.
Clinton and Bush two war criminals that should have been sent to the Hague years ago for their war crimes, disgusting that those people are still at large.
@#JohnnyDeppIsRacist Eh?! Wrong video me thinks!!
Maybe if they stopped being corrupt and bombing poor countries for their natural resources they would be even more popular.
How many times was he on the Lolita Express?
+Chris. Some politicians do have that touch. Ronald Reagan in particular comes to mind. Or Sir Winston Churchill.
Queen Elizabeth II only beat Queen Victoria by 6 years (the latter reigned from 1837 to 1901). But still, that was an achievement.
They've both always been charmers. Clinton, especially. It's largely why he was elected by such huge margins both times. We've long had a tendency to choose presidents based on how they make us feel rather than their acumen or qualifications. Of course, once they're in office, any bad policies will obscure said charm. Though his policies and decisions were largely bad, President Bush, for his part, is a tremendously decent human being. He was just in a bit over his head. It's partially our fault for putting him there, I suppose. That said, to his credit, he should be remembered for what he *didn't* do. After 9/11, he could've demonized the Muslim community. America was looking for a scapegoat. He defended American Muslims.
She was a grand Lady 🇬🇧
Interesting to hear a candid perspective on a very special woman, leader, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, RIP Queen Elizabeth.
The Bush bit was nice
Well said Bill. Well said!
RIP your Majesty Queen Elizabeth till the second coming of Jesus Christ.
I'm an American and generally feel monarchies are absurd and outdated. But losing the Queen was such a tremendous loss for the entire world. Her grace, charm, and dedication was simply unparalleled. Fortunately, we were blessed with 70 years.
It’s absurd to American ideals yes. It isn’t to many countries round the globe. There are more monarchies than republics on the earth.
@@manmaje3596 Be that as it may, that doesn’t make the idea that people are born and anointed by a mythical higher power to lord over people any less absurd.
@@pwbmd I 100% agree, but there is just something to her monarch that's so inspiring and also tragic. Not sure this next one will be the same...
I'm an American and generally feel monarchies are just as legitimate a form of government and that democracies are inherently weak and lend themselves to populism, civil strife, and division all to easily.
@@aaronfire359 - All western monarchies are in fact democracies, in case you're unaware.
Bush Sr. said in a interview that she had an amazing sense of humor.
As did he. Old Man Bush knew exactly.
"Actual Power" ? Power comes in many forms like grace, tradition, respect, voice, opinion. Oh she had Power in her own way.
Sorry my friend. Her position, by definition, is powerless. She certainly had SYMBOLIC power, sure... but only if she never expressed her actual political convictions. That's not any sort of power I would want.
@@SuperRobertoClemente No, many times no. She had, like the king, total power, she just chose not to use it
She had absolute power, head of parliament, head of the prison service, head of the church of England, head of the armed forces, head of the nation, head of the Commonwealth, head of the postal service, head of the police, she could drive a car with out a licence, drive without a licence plate, decide the royal dress code, could not be charged of any crime, anywhere on earth, could dismiss a prime minister, go without a last name, take legal custody of her grandchildren, skip paying taxes, travel internationally without a passport, avoid jury duty, ignore speed limits, celebrate two birthdays, keep her finances private, not bow or curtsey to any one, go cashless, put her face on multiple currencies, give knighthoods, have access to the royal jewels, choose the royal menu, access all of the royal residences, issue royal warrents, approve or disapprove a royal marriage proposal, declare war, grant a criminal pardon, have a private atm, owns all the Swans on the river Thames, has dominion of all dolphins in British waters, can create lords, can form governments, had her own knights, can fire the entire Australian government, had her own breed of horses, and being the head of the church of England technically has ownership of every English persons soul, that is why we are called subjects not citizens, no power? She was the most powerful person on earth, GOD SAVE THE KING.
@@15DAVIDYOUNG I'd go along with all of that apart from the most powerful on earth. But she was one of them along with POTUS and the pope
@@tallthinkev you have to factor in duration, and influence, as well as wealth and connections, respectfully to potus. When she became monarch he was 9 years old.

Wow. I have not had an interest in Bill Clinton for a long time, but his words here about the Queen were so real and honest I teared up. Thank you President Clinton.

Matter of fact or opinion, he's corrupt and popular but in his own way compared to all the other US Presidents
She was such an amazing person.
How was she amazing, You and the rest of the world saw very little of her except shaking hands and making speeches. Get off the delusion and join reality.
Congrats on game of the year bill!
Bill Clinton's last words in this video summed it up perfectly. He's always had a way with words lol
And his body parts to. Another lousey President
Yup. Rhodes scholar
Before she was Queen, Britain had never had a female Prime Minister, her last official act, was to welcome our third.
And she had nothing to do with it so your comment has no relevance.
@@levibrook3272 I was pointing out how times have changed and how easy it was for us in Britain to elect a woman, as we had a good role model already, but you probably knew what I meant but chose to be weird ;)
@@PeterJPickles No I was pointing out that Britain is no different than other countries that have elected women in the past 50 years without having a 'role model''; so I wouldn't correlate it to having the Queen. And I don't see how she could anyway be a role model for a PM as the Queen is a fake job with no power and doesn't need the skills for a PM.
@@PeterJPickles How Many MILLIONS OF Starving And Destitute People Has She Donated Her Royal Wealth To Help Them Out? NONE That I Know Of. Even My Canadian Friend Doesn't Give A Damn About Them, Doing NOTHING For Canada. You People Better Get Out Of Dreamland And Into The REAL WORLD...

President Clinton really meant what he was saying, and I could tell. Queen Elizabeth was a very admirable woman, and anyone would be lucky (and maybe more) to be in her presence. This was a wonderful interview with one former leader talking about another.
We miss our wonderful Queen. May she rest in peace 🙏
This was truly a majestic queen. Rest in peace QUEEN ELIZABETH.
She was a great leader who gave her all to England. The world will miss her. Would love to know which heads of state will be attending her funeral. It would be remarkable to see her last achievement as a means of strengthening bonds between countries.
The "list" is quite limited, as you can imagine, so, obviously, some will be left out.....
WHAT DID SHE LEAD? MILLIONS Of Starving Destitute People In The British Commonwealths Got NOTHING From The Royals, Except A Visit To Wave To Them...

Beautiful memories and tribute to the Queen 👑
What a lovely tribute from President Clinton to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 🙏🏽
Correction: Not since Dwight Eisenhower but rather Harry Truman. Elizabeth II became Queen in 1952, and Truman was still President of the United States (Eisenhower was elected in 1952 but was of course sworn in on Jan 20th 1953) although she met Truman in 1951 while she still Princess Elizabeth.
Queen Elizabeth ii has met at least 13 US Presidents for her life time
Wow. Very revealing interview. I got a great sense of the queen and her intelligence, shrewdness, and determination underlying the larger projection of unity. She was a woman that kept the show on the road. I can see that. She worked in her royal duties pretty much until the last few days of her life.

Queen Elizabeth certainly had power. Contrary to Bravers" assertion. Neither do I understand where Braver came up with the idea the queen was "a cutout figure to many Americans". Certainly not to this American.
Perhaps not power in the political sense. But certainly influence.
My thoughts exactly

'A cut out figure.' ??? Huh, Rita is a bright lady, but that was a bum statement. The Queen is and 'was' a wonder. Glad to have lived during her reign and time. God Save the Queen.
She was simply commenting on the way most Americans see her. In other words never having met her their view inevitably lacks depth. It wasn't a "bum" statement. It was perfectly fair and reasonable. comment.
He’s always on point.
Amazing insight from President Clinton.
A life of selfless devotion, just an amazing lady. 👑 🇬🇧 👑
There will never be another Queen Elizabeth 2nd .
Well said, Mr. Clinton....
To think that the woman was a veteran of ww2. She reign over a state during so much. The life she lived i would of personality loved to hear.
She kept the show on the road…
Ex Royal Navy and married to a New York girl, who is ex USN, I have the best of both worlds, thank god, God save the King.
So why was LBJ the only President who never met with the Queen? Was it logistics, politics, or that she wasn't a Texan?
He met with Princess Margaret...
She was pregnant and was advised not to travel.
Because of the same reasons Vladimir Putin won't attend Queen Elizabeth II's funeral...
You're too busy fighting a BULLSHT WAR.
She was on maternity leave at the time and LBJ had Vietnam going on at the time so travel, even to Europe might have been a bit dangerous. It was just a wrong place at the wrong time sort of deal.
LBJ? LeBron James?
Queen Elizabeth was a remarkable woman ❤
Thanks Bill👏
No Power!!!! She didn't need power as you know it ...... we loved her and respected her so much!
Constitionally
What an amazing tribute Mr. President!
She came to our School to cut the ribbon of our brand new sports centre building. Unfortunately only a few students got to see the Queen. I got to see it on news but it was huge for The Queen to come to our violent stricken secondary school (although things changed when we graduated 2007).
Kids at that age absorb misinformation or propaganda like a sponge so many students acted like we didn't care but I personally changed my mind about the Queen after her visit.
I knew the importance of her role and you don't have to be a royalist to love the Queen for her duty to the country. Us minorities admired the queen probably more so than some. R.i.p Queen Elizabeth II
It should be pointed out that she met Herbert Hoover in the early 1960's
Thank was so nice!!!!
Just imagine how many Americans have Ancestry in Great Britain and now thanks to Genealogy have only come to realize it in recent years. Maybe that explains a bit of America's fascination for with the Royal Family for decades.
Which is strange because this country, including Americans with a direct lineage from England, fought a long bloody war to get away from that family.
The war was because money and taxes from the empire , not cultural
Also the american culture is non existent , what do they have, thanksgiving and 2nd july thats it
People want to belong to a strong culture
@@nomorealone9158 yes, the Major Issue to the Americans was "taxation without representation " - and, yes, the Declaration of Independence seems to focus on King George III, by the 1770s the monarch didn't have much real power left. Parliament was the Problem.
The U.S. thru out George III but never fell out of love with the British monarchy.
We didn’t realize that she was truly the queen of the world.
The Only One That Did ANYTHING Worthwhile For Other Suffering People Was Diane, That Was Killed In A Car Crash. She Was Helping Land Mine Victims. The Rest Of Them Are Smug DO NOTHINGS...
@@davemckolanis4683 idk man the queen seemed to have the gift of keeping the country calm and at ease. Diana was a fantastic humanitarian but imagine the country going through the last 70 years without the queen telling them it was going to be ok.

@@barbarjinks8170 I Think Your Country Would Do JUST FINE WITHOUT Having An Additional Monarchy Being Attached To Your Government Final Decision Making.

Bush .. ADORABLE… in his “I’m trying to fix my mess up” cute precious look to the Queen 😊❤️
I believe the Queen never made a flippent response to anyone or any country when it came to her country and her counties people .. Wrong or right.. England and it’s people came first or their interests
Farewell your Majesty, thank you for your deep friendship with my country. 🇺🇸 ❤️ 🇬🇧! Too all the beautiful people of the UK we stand in full solidarity with you, as in her own words grief is the price we pay for love.
Every politician in the world wanted to meet the Queen,she was smart,curious ,prudent ,wise and dignified ,she was a legend and still is ,much respect for her and her ability to keep her prime ministers in check and a very unified United Kingdom,she was the best thing that could happened to the UK !
I think Bill and the queen's son shared some memorable times on a quaint island somewhere 🤔
The comment was wrong, the queen has supreme power over the armed forces and her role is to protect the constitution.
Nice tribute, Bill.
There is a difference between authority and power. A constitutional monarch may have very little authority, but enormous power behind closed doors.

Really??
Who said she didn't have any actual power? She had all the powers constitutionally given to her but she used them in a way that the power didn't feel dominant to the public. What do you think the monarch discusses with PM in their weekly meetings? Monarch conveys his wish regarding any issue to the cabinet through the PM.
Had no actual power? A journalist who thinks only partisan political policy has any influence. How quaint! What a bizarre vision you portray!
Wow President Ford dance with Queen, he's good 👸🎼 Amazing Queen met about 13 presidents 🤗
She was such a classy lady! Too bad her kids don’t have that same class as their mom had! Troubled times ahead for England

Bill straight up says "She is a lovely person and also a power broker within the British Government."

Seven.
