Dick Cheney: Peacekeeper

Some years ago, still a college student, I was in the waiting hall of the American Enterprise Institute to meet a friend. Unbeknownst to me, a board meeting was happening behind the wall I was leaning against. A man walked out of the room and walked through the hall. I stared at him, frozen. One of my heroes, Dick Cheney, had locked eyes with me, as I was incapable of speaking. “Hello, sir!” said the former vice president and simply passed me. I was still paralyzed.
