The longtime Democratic strategist has been involved in national politics since the early days of the Clinton campaign – and even before.

So, in the latest C-SPAN podcast "The Weekly," we mark both events with a best-of episode – the best-of – and most colorful moments with -- James Carville on C-SPAN.

Like his 1996 speech to students at American University.

They will come at you in a lot of different ways to destroy your resolve. They will come at you in a lot of different ways to take you and tell you don’t want to be involved. That it's just a dirty business.
