That quip about the 40th anniversary special reminded me of an on-the-street interview with Mike Bloomberg, back when he was campaigning for the Democratic presidential nomination, which if he had won would have faced him off against Donald Trump.

The reporter asked something like, "In a Presidential race with two billionaires, do you think there is any loss of appeal from working-class voters?" And Bloomberg replied, "Two billionaires? Who's the other one?"

Primary voters rightfully (IMO) rejected Bloomberg, but I'll always love that response.
