conventions
I didn't plan on watching the Republican Convention and probably wont watch the Democratic Convention, I know who I will not be voting for, and I know who I will be voting for. The last night of the Republican affair, I figured I could watch something on the TV that would be entertaining, so I turn the TV on , I am surprised at the number of channels carrying the convention, switching channels I saw Trump for about 5 or 6 seconds hearing him rant and rave and yell - his demeanor reminded me of Hitler's demeanor, and probably I have the same regard for both. After a while I got to thinking what is our country going to end up being, then I started thinking about Presidents we have had.My highest regard goes to President Roosevelt with all of the problems the U.S. had at that time. Next, I favor Lyndon Johnson. I have visited his grave , out of respect.
I know he was a little ragged around the edges, but he was a good and sincere man, he helped many many extremely poor people, people that other Presidents ignored. He was criticized for wasting our tax money in his concern for the poor. The criticism didn't bother him and he had the answer for the objectors, "If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen". A very profound statement and more should heed his words, which includes some bloggers.
