After admitting to smoking pot (but not inhaling), former President Bill Clinton opened himself up to “soft on drugs” criticism. While youthful indiscretions didn’t stop Clinton from assuming leadership positions, an arrest surely would have.

...exploration and family tribulation than on silent “e”s and phonemes. Gere is Saul Naumann, a cocky, self-absorbed father who demands perfection in his son, Aaron (Max Minghella), and wife, Miriam (Juliette Binoche). He points out a spot his wife misses on a pot she cleans, he obnoxiously corrects his son on minor details, and he never pays attention to his introverted daughter, Eliza (Flora Cross)—that is, until she wins the local spelling bee. Saul, a theology professor, insists that his daughter’s spelling powers are intrinsically connected...
