Letter: Clinton determined

Published 28 November 1998

From Len Haim

There is now a case of nominative determinism that cannot be ignored. It has
been genetically verified that former US president Thomas Jefferson had a
productive affair with a young lady in his employ.

The recent scandal surrounding the present US President, William Jefferson Clinton, proves that he
was doing nothing more than following his nominatively determined fate.

I know that Feedback has stated that the subject is closed, but perhaps this
historical and history-making case can be published as a postscript to the
subject.
