delivered more progressive results for the benefit of the American people than the GOP has. I think we all know what those have been (at least we oldsters do who remember what good we gained down through time). We have had our wars and struggles, right or wrong, sometimes even good has come out of war . I think of Japan who made startling social changes, the results of that war. Israel who managed to accomplish a country to call their own, etc.
Today I feel more hopeful. Time will tell whether some good will come out of this present struggle.
I'll shut up....Thanks for your post, Mr. Scorpio. Made me feel whole.
