And I -- and I don't keep people personal advice let me tell you -- -- -- listen to this this story which I thought.
When -- four months of -- in my mind.
A walk on and unfortunately this year because they just in the two months early going Jimmy Fallon.

And -- wasn't the most dignified place over the bar I got Sabbath highest respect -- them politicians.
Now now listeners.
Now and then these envelopes it is -- -- -- of -- children but what I didn't tell anybody I didn't make him as that I also took a shot it.
Who was going to be running for the Republican ticket because when I wrote it and -- I showed this on and Jimmy Fallon just a day after election a few weeks ago there were thirty when people that were but there was Sarah Palin lot of because.
-- was amongst them but there was no one pick to Tampa this was July.
We tell you this -- a month later the Republican Party picks Romney.
I go on the air.
When your former -- they had the other cases they didn't bring in Robin -- is because she was ultimately but he opened -- there in in and then in Vegas.
The other to confirm that each had this prediction.
-- success -- predicted.
That -- the Democrats would win but I also took a shop and who would be running for the Republican president and I was wrong.
It's one of the most dramatic -- as I've ever had in my life.
The course of the year were standing there by the way the impact -- the units which -- crucial -- this kind of pandemonium.
-- Jamaica knows what can we see who you picked.
Remember this is a month -- war.
Republican who decide to pursue my name.
Was not known -- -- was pole run.
Neither -- Vice president.
And listen to this set of circumstances getting into my mind folks.
Win.
Predictions are seeing you -- four copies.
One month later.
Republican Party -- of courtroom and I -- it failed.
And I can't talk to anybody because I made a definite statement now able to do -- my secretary.
My closest life -- I had no idea and I couldn't talk something -- one years three more months -- -- field.
Then weeks later he name's -- when I wanna celebrate like it's celebrate if it was.
And now and everybody's asked me and -- been interviewed as far -- -- Germany because of that but not because of the public with what may reduce.
Alan I don't know.
I spent hours over two weeks periods poring over all these things and then I went jogging one night.
And his name kept coming -- I said when I got to lose I'm sure I predict the right for the presence of foot and went with it.
-- -- and Paul Ryan was name in contention I really wasn't -- it wasn't even thought of as being running for president.
Now they tell me.
Now they tell me I just I don't know what news people -- -- to dig these -- You realize Christian one night and -- folks would have to look this up.
Romney was introducing someone and saying you know the next -- ex president -- -- I didn't know with this incident I swear to go by written this way before anybody was even -- that's not psychic what is it.
I think it's my unconscious in tuition because I kept studying.
For example I -- a dividend of psychic well everybody knows the -- the case of Obama.
I named Obama one year earlier in some interviews and reporters came back to me and said long before you.
Went into a formal prediction you named him.
-- -- his psychology behind this it was a very difficult time.
People were dissatisfied with both parties people in -- sense we're seeking unknowns and unknown kind of person.
And I -- and he wasn't known when I mean to nobody thought about him.
In the psychology -- was that's why I picked -- they wanted to by the way that can you see this Q personal person.
Don't anyone think -- who like picked or who I wanted in retrospect.
With what Obama.
And and Romney.
And and Paul -- I wouldn't have picked any of -- period any of that order company.
I don't know but how -- it but how is that not psychic.
I don't think it has in these special.
Prognosticate and -- I can't look at crystal ball but I -- I got up and -- honestly because -- seriously.
By so many reporters and writers.
What made me do it Alan I don't know it's -- one time I can give an answer I could to other time.
Right someone down there wasn't even on the list I showed I showed on the jury -- His name and it wasn't even there he was he was vice president later on I don't know Allen and and I I came to McCain I'm sorry I don't mean that I don't mean playing games I can give an inch you put 101000 down.
I have to make -- an -- and -- you must know how it is you do what you do let me we'll have a sense -- -- -- right and -- a vacation there in case of the democratic election.
I would have element what does it would have been gone is my judge.
-- 101000 dollars.
I'm sure that was going to be the now of course a lot of things happened in those last months but you know a lot of things can happen any time look at how.
And then look at how the president who's a brilliant speaker whatever wants to -- an -- extraordinary find communicators.
Look at how with one of the greatest.
Tragedies.
In American history involving twenty children what have you -- he came two days later and spoke to the American public.
That was one of the highlights of communication I believe in his opinion and this is not endorsing other things -- what have you I'm a communicators and I have to say.
It was a -- communication because I can remember as a little boy in the second -- war.
When -- or went before the microphones and spoke he felt like he was speaking only to you and I halls remember.
When the most dramatic real moments in history of this country.
FDR had died he carry us through through fought through it at that through a world war and he was in his fourth term.
And I vividly remembers little boy in the mainland on the radio and broadcast.
In Washington DC the funeral.
And broke down crying it was a shortest coverage of a -- rule that's been broadcast and it's now on tapes of history.
It was Arthur Godfrey.
He's breaking down crying communicating more the American public and all the reporters the recovery to understand it's a pleasure to finality it's it's empathy.
He touches the words no it is not the words it and I and I compliment him there I didn't mean to get off -- -- -- but I think if you know Alan can I say that.
Alan Alan by the way a number of analysts have said.
Would you come in and study Christian with me when I'm -- enough that --
