When Chelsea was going to college and Hillary needed some parental advice, she called Sis. Mangun to talk to her. When Clinton's affair was exposed he called the Manguns and they came to the White House to pray with him. It was there that Sis. Mangun sang "I Have Been Redeemed" in a private session with the Clintons.

I tried, begged, and pleaded for every Apostolic I knew to pray for him instead of belittle, attack, and speak hate against him. But to no avail... I don't blame him for not wearing the label "Apostolic" based on how we treated and talked about him in the Conservative media and in our churches. But, on the Spiritual side... the man was the closest to being an "Apostolic" President than any we've had.
I've always admired Anthony Mangun. There are few preachers that I've heard that preach consistently with the type of burden and passion that he preaches the Gospel with.

I gained even more respect though, when I read Bill Clinton's book. This is an excerpt from "My Life" by Bill Clinton.

" During my second term, when the Republicans were trying to run me out of town and a lot of the pundits were saying I was dead meat, Anthony Mangun called me and asked if he and Mickey could come see me for twenty minutes. I said, "Twenty minutes? You're going to fly all the way up here for twenty minutes?" He replied, "You're busy. That's all it'll take." I told him to come on up. A few days later, Anthony and Mickey sat alone with me in the Oval Office. He said, "You did a bad thing but you're not a bad man. We raised our children together. I know your heart. Don't give up on yourself. And if you're going down, and the rats start to leave the sinking ship, call me. I rode up with you, and I want to go down with you." Then we prayed together and Mickey gave me a tape of a beautiful song she ahd written to shore me up. It was entitled "Redeemed." After twenty minutes, they got up and flew home. "
