Great piece -- both stories compelling. In the latter story did you get anyone who was confronting? And in 2006 you were campaigning for Joe?! Joe Biden for Senate? I was confused. And this is really a great piece. I am trying to get out the vote. Been out twice with PPH. I will go out again. I was active in 2020 and I have to believe it made a difference. But Biden is not doing well. His numbers are way down and I am not sure he can survive another election. It is likely Trump won't get the nomination -- DeSantis would be the next in line. He's not crazy but his policies are really extreme and I fear what would happen if he were president. Oh well. One step at a time. Stay well.
Ok, I stand corrected. Do you remember the things that, slowly or spontaneously, led you join the Democratic Party? Johnson, of course, aggressively pursued the war, more or less initiated by Kennedy
As I recall, if my memory serves, you went from Ike to Goldwater. Do have that right? We liked Ike where I came from, but Goldwater was a different number.
I was in college when you were Liking Ike and, silly me, I was wearing an I Go Pogo button. But I did vote. For Stevenson. First election-night heartbreak. He was such a fine man. But so was Ike, despite my young opinion that he was a big yawn. Oh for boring leadership again. Thanks for your beautifully written memories, and for jogging mine.
Thanks for your story and inspiration! We should all be doing our part supporting Democrats, whether via money contributions or out on the street. VOTE BLUE!!!
