VINCE FOSTER SAID, "BEFORE WE CAME HERE, WE THOUGHT OF OURSELVES AS GOOD PEOPLE"

Foster was born in Hope, Arkansas and a neighbor of Bill Clinton. He was a member of the Rose Law Firm, and the head of the Arkansas Bar Association Committtie that oversaw legal aid.

He was described as tall, with impeccable manners and a formal person. Foster was elegant in tailored suits and soft- spoken. He was named one of " The Best Lawyers in America." He was quite upset and had bad depression and anxiety over hearings and investigations in Washington.

Foster also said " The Wall Street Journal editors lie without consequence".

I think Foster thought he would make a difference in Washington. I was very impressed with the cabinet that Clinton chose . They were the best that I had ever seen. They were young and gifted.
