(i) Robert B. Reich was Secretary of Labor in the first Clinton administration.
(ii) The VOA report states, "他们两人2004年在中国相遇." But NYT said in 2007 that "'We met four years ago in China" when it was 2003. The sequence of teh events in NYT is more convincing.
(iii) The VOA report is also mistaken when it reported, "40岁的吉福兹6年前当选国会议员." It is well known that the congresswoman was first elected in 2006.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Capra
(1897-1991; Capra films usually carry a definite message about the basic goodness of human nature and show the value of unselfishness and hard work. His wholesome, feel-good themes have led some to term his style Capra-corn, but those who hold his vision in high regard prefer the term Capraesque)
* The "corn" is derived from
corny (adj):
"2: of or relating to corn
3: mawkishly old-fashioned : tiresomely simple and sentimental <told corny jokes>"
