John, great to have you.  Thank you so much for holding on.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, thank you so much.  This is an important question for me.  I think it would be interesting for your listeners.  A great mind like yours or a great athlete, when they\u2019re gifted and they train, as you know better than I do, they become the best. They\u2019re in the Hall of Fame.  And so I was wondering, in your case, you must have been gifted, but how did you begin?  Did you spend all-nighters?  Did you memorize certain books?  Did you drink eight cups of coffee a day and sleep four hours?  And did you finally find a groove of how to study? <\/p>\n<p>In other words, a particular portion of politics helps you get the overall scheme, and then when you studied or you memorized &#8212; I guess you get my gist of it.  I don\u2019t want to take 20 minutes just going over this question because you have other callers. But I would, and I\u2019m sure other people would like to know, how you began, what was your sojourn, as far as your study and your accumulation of all these facts and knowledge and writing ability?<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_105161\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushShow-prep.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Wow.  I don\u2019t know how to &#8212; I mean, I know you\u2019re asking this question seriously.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Oh, it\u2019s a serious question, and there\u2019s no double entendre, like I\u2019m trying to figure out why are you so this and that.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No, no, I know it\u2019s serious, and I don\u2019t want to be flippant with you.  I mean, I don\u2019t want to appear to not take your question seriously. But I don\u2019t see myself that way, number one.  But let me tell you a little story.<\/p>\n<p>I had the occasion one evening to have dinner with Henry Kissinger.  I decided that I was just gonna throw everything to the wind and just ask him.  I didn\u2019t care if the question seemed stupid.  There were things I\u2019d been wanting to ask him ever since I\u2019d first heard of him.  And one of the questions I asked him, we\u2019re at William Buckley\u2019s house and it was in the drawing room after dinner.  Buckley and I were smoking cigars, and the room is just thick with smoke.  Kissinger didn\u2019t smoke, but he didn\u2019t care.  He was a trooper sitting in there and his wife, Nancy, was there. <\/p>\n<p>I said, &#8220;Dr. Kissinger, could I ask you a personal question?&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>And he sat there, as the brilliant, superior person that he is.  &#8220;Yes, of course, you may.  What is the question?&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_105165\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/DrK_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>I said, &#8220;I am dying to know how in the world you decided to deal with the North Vietnamese when it was time for that peace process in Paris.  You are undoubtedly the most brilliant man in any government in the world.  How did you deal with the North Vietnamese?  Was there anybody that you were dealing with that was on your level?  Did you have to make a concerted effort to get down to their level, or was there somebody that was nearly your intellectual equal?&#8221; <\/line><\/p>\n<p>He sat there and nodded his head and he was seriously considering the question.  He did not refute my premise.  He accepted the premise that he was by far the intellectual giant of all of the people there, and not in an offensive way.  It wasn\u2019t offensive at all. <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve got a break I have to take here, but, John, don\u2019t hang up, \u2019cause I will complete this story when we get back.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  And we\u2019re back with John in Fort Wayne, Indiana.  So, John, I\u2019m asking Dr. Kissinger, in this smoke-filled room &#8212; and anybody else would have reacted to the smoke.  I mean, it was that much.  The room didn\u2019t have any ventilation, but he didn\u2019t say a word.  It was what it was.<\/p>\n<p>His presence was overwhelming, and I\u2019m asking him how in the world he managed to deal, to relate with the North Vietnamese negotiators.  It\u2019s a small country, not a lot of people there, communists, brutal people, in our way of thinking, uncivilized compared to us.  How in the world did you form a bond with them?  Were they able to get up to your level?  Did you have to get down to their level? <\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t remember exactly what he said, but he did not refute my premise, John.  He did not disagree that he was the smartest guy in the world. He did not disagree he was the smartest guy in the room.  He accepted my premise and answered it as such.  He said (imitating Kissinger), &#8220;Well, you must remember that Ho Chi Minh was educated in America.  So on many levels I was dealing with people who already knew the way that things are done in this country.  And I had to realize this going in, that I did not have a cultural advantage at all whatsoever.  They were brutal, you are exactly right.  That\u2019s what separated the two.  They were just brutal.  That\u2019s how they got things done.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>He ended up explaining what it was like. The first three weeks of the peace talks were an argument over the layout of the table, for crying out loud.  But the only reason I tell you this story is because you\u2019re asking me, you know, how I train my &#8212; I don\u2019t know.  I don\u2019t think of myself the way you do, but I appreciate that you do, don\u2019t misunderstand me.  Here\u2019s what I do.  Let me just tell you what I do.  I have been really lucky in my life.  I have been able to do, I have been able to focus on my passions.  I have been able to focus on the things that I love.  And so none of it has appeared, none of it seemed like work to me. <\/p>\n<p>Now, there were problematic days when I was a deejay and it took me awhile to get to this point where I had time to do what I wanted to do and devote to the way I wanted to do it. But I would say the specific answer to your question is &#8212; let me answer it this way.  I can\u2019t tell you the number of media people who have said, &#8220;You know what, we would love to follow you around for a day to see how you prepare.  We would love to show our viewers what it\u2019s like to get ready for the program.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>I said, &#8220;No, you don\u2019t want to do that.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why not?&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>I said, &#8220;Because you better be prepared to see me sitting for hours and reading.  That\u2019s all I do.  I don\u2019t collaborate with anybody.  I don\u2019t call anybody.  I don\u2019t send anybody notes.  I don\u2019t ask people what they think about this.  I just absorb.  That is all I do.  I have years and years of accumulated knowledge and accumulated opinion, and it all gets added to the base, and I either confirm what I believe or change my mind about things here or there.  But there\u2019s nothing to see.  You\u2019re gonna see me sitting somewhere. You\u2019re gonna see me sitting on a couch. You\u2019re gonna see me sitting at a desk, sitting in a chair and smoking cigars, that\u2019s what you\u2019re gonna see.  There\u2019s nothing to see because it all takes place where nobody can see what\u2019s going on, and that\u2019s in my brain.  I mean, I don\u2019t know how exciting that would be, but that\u2019s what I do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  When you\u2019re reading your books, do you write in the margins? Do you color-code?  Do you have a certain schemata that you go with that you can see at a glance after you\u2019re done with your reading work?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  No. If there\u2019s something that I want to remember, I reread it 10 times.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Wow.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  And if there\u2019s something I really, really want to never forget, I write it down myself verbatim, what I\u2019ve just read.  When I did apply myself in college, which was like one or two courses or when I went to the radio school, the way I would study, I would take as detailed notes as I could and then the first thing I did when I got home is start rewriting them as verbatim as I could remember. No shortcuts, no shorthand, no leaving out adjectives. I rewrote everything by hand at the time. I didn\u2019t have a typewriter.  I found by doing that I never forget it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  I love that.  I love that, Rush.  I love it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  But rereading it &#8212; sometimes now, you know, on an iPad, you can make a note.  You can highlight a passage and make a note and always have it as a reference point.  The problem I have with that is remembering what I\u2019ve made notes about, in order to find the notes.  So I\u2019ve developed a system for that.  But I don\u2019t do that very much. I\u2019m not a speed reader.  I take my time.  I verbalize what I read.  The biggest obstacle to speed reading is silently speaking what you read.  And every speed read teacher tries to get the student to stop pronouncing the word verbally. Don\u2019t pronounce the punctuation, just absorb the words, don\u2019t read it to you.  Well, I don\u2019t do that.  I make sure that, as I\u2019m reading, I actually can hear myself saying it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Wow.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So I read kind of slow compared to &#8212; I mean, I don\u2019t scan.  If I\u2019m really interested in it, I absorb it.  Another thing, though.  I have also learned that you don\u2019t have to read everything to get the gist.  I know, for example, in a news story where the news is and where it isn\u2019t.  So in a 750-word column, I\u2019ll probably read 300 to 400 words.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  When you\u2019re reading these books, Rush, and you\u2019re using your capacity, do you take anything for energy?  I mean, do you eat &#8212; I know this sounds stupid, but do you eat something, a specific thing while you\u2019re reading?  Do you drink a cup of coffee or something to keep your synapses moving?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Folks, you\u2019re gonna think this is crazy.  I can relate to this guy\u2019s question because, you know, when I watch a football game, I wonder what the players had for pregame, especially guys having a great day, okay, what was the pregame meal?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I do not eat while I\u2019m &#8212; if I\u2019m reading a novel, I may munch on something.  If I\u2019m reading for work, I don\u2019t eat.  I have a cigar, maybe a Diet Coke.  But I don\u2019t have any noise.  The TV\u2019s off, literally no noise in the room. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  How about coffee?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Only in the morning.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Okay.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  But the coffee\u2019s unrelated to the study.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Okay.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Coffee is just what I need to get going in the morning.  Probably hot water would suffice.  It\u2019s just something hot.  But there\u2019s no nutritional component, if you\u2019re asking me that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, I just meant for energy, not nutritional in the, you know, nutritional sense.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Oh.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Just something to get those synapses going, like you\u2019re reading 700 things, you\u2019re not reading out loud, you\u2019re absorbing &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Oh.  Well, now there are days that I\u2019m unable to focus like I\u2019d like to.  There are days I just don\u2019t want to do it, moments in a day where I don\u2019t want to do it.  If that happens, I just stop, I don\u2019t fight it. I put it down and, you know, pick up a novel, watch a television show, or do something and then come back to it later.  But there\u2019s no external stimuli that I use to get going if I\u2019m flat.  I just wait \u2019til it happens.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  That\u2019s good.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I\u2019m flattered that you\u2019re asking me all this.  I don\u2019t even think about this until you\u2019re asking me about it.  I just do it.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  That\u2019s the amazing thing.  That\u2019s the amazing thing because I know &#8212; well, I don\u2019t know a lot of scholars, but I know a few &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  See, I\u2019m not a scholar.  I\u2019m rejected by scholars.  I\u2019m considered unserious by people with formal education. <\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Well, that\u2019s ridiculous.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Well, no, it\u2019s class oriented.  It\u2019s the way it is. Plus, to be on the radio, to a lot of people, is the lowest rung of the show biz ladder.  TV\u2019s where it\u2019s at. I hate television.  The older I get the more I hate it \u2019cause it\u2019s collaborative and it\u2019s phony and you gotta do all this stuff before you even get to the &#8212; by the time you\u2019re ready to do the TV show, I\u2019ve forgotten half of what I wanted to say, \u2019cause I\u2019ve gotta talk to the makeup artist and I\u2019ve got a producer, collaborate here and there.  It\u2019s just a giant distraction.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I mean, two and a half hours of meetings to do a 20-minute TV show, and I haven\u2019t done one meeting ever for this radio show.  So, anyway, I appreciate the question, but I\u2019ve always just chalked all this up to being blessed with a half decent memory. I\u2019m fortunate I\u2019m able to combine the things I really am interested in and fascinated by with my job.  In fact, that is my job.  So that\u2019s what I care about. <\/p>\n<p>I think anybody doing what you really care about, you\u2019re gonna know more of it, remember more of it. You\u2019re going to be able to keep track of it and have immediate recall on things that you need if you\u2019re devoted to it, if you\u2019ve adapted to the circumstances necessary to learn, so forth. <\/p>\n<p>I just view myself, actually, as having been &#8212; in fact, I got into an argument &#8212; this may help you.  When I was refusing to go to college and my dad was just beside himself, considering himself a failure as a parent \u2019cause he couldn\u2019t convince me to go to college &#8212; if I didn\u2019t go to college, in his world I was never gonna amount to anything \u2019cause he came out of Great Depression where if you didn\u2019t have a degree, you weren\u2019t gonna get a job.  And I told him that I wanted to be like William F. Buckley one day. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What do you mean by that?&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to be able to sit around and just learn.  I want to be able to sit here and read. I want to be able to sit here and write. I don\u2019t want to have to go to class.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>He gave me the biggest lecture, &#8220;Well, how do you think Buckley got to where he is?  Do you think he\u2019s just been sitting around his whole life and so forth?&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>We had a big knock-down, drag-out about it.  He said, &#8220;You can\u2019t look at people who are&#8221; &#8212; at the time I\u2019m 19 years old, now &#8212; &#8220;You can\u2019t look at people are 45 and 50 and think they started there.  You\u2019re looking at where they are.  You think you want to be there tomorrow, but that\u2019s not how they got there.&#8221;  He was constantly trying to pummel common sense into me.  And he did, more often than he knew.  But, John, I gotta go.  I appreciate the question very much, and I hope the answer\u2019s satisfactory.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: John in Fort Wayne, Indiana. John, great to have you.
