First, the answer to last week’s question. Name every U.S. Senator, alive or dead, born in Hawaii. Six: Daniel Inouye, Daniel Akaka, Spark Matsunaga, Hiram Fong, Hiram Bingham — and Barack Obama.
Now, the next Extreme Trivia question, sent to us by Seth Leibsohn of the Claremont Institute and Bill Bennett’s radio show. Name the speechwriter who wrote Gerald Ford’s famous August 9, 1974 line referring to Watergate and Nixon: “Our long national nightmare is over.”
