AND, he's clear forceful and has no malapropisms. I am inspired to learn that he stuttered as a child. That he overcame is a gift!

A magnificent song. The pain of the children asking their mama if it were true what they had heard... with the orchestral arrangement bedim them. Whoever says that blacks in mid-century America were just having sex, doing drugs and didn't care about family should listen tot this song!

So, if I were a governor, I would do exactly what the MD and CO governors did! they are trying to protect the people in their states and with a dysfunctional federal govt. they have to be entreprenurial. Good for Larry Hogan and Jared Polis!

What a charmer is Tony (Dr.) Fauci. This is an interview long before the current pandemic, but he's been working on infectious diseases for more than 35 years! AND he's a Jesuit-educated product.

re: Megathread: Elizabeth Warren to Suspend Presidential Campaign (reddit.com) originally posted by eugene
jeannie's reply 3 years ago

I agree that Warren staying in the Senate has a more important purpose than her being chosen as VP since control of the Senate is our second priority after getting rid of Trump. I think that Biden has other choices- but many of the likely women candidates are also in the Senate - Kamala Harris, Amy Klobuchar, for example.

This is the real corruption. I wish Warren and others would call it out directly, rather than referring in general to corruption.

re: NFL Protest (self.politics) originally posted by boyfromnyc
jeannie's reply 5 years ago

At a Physical Therapy class last week, I heard a fellow classmate bemoaning the athlete protests as being at the 'wrong venue'. Your examples above of alternative 'venues' or platforms are excellent.

Protest and conflict are messy: Colin Kapernick is not a perfect role model. But there is a growing awareness of the real mis-treatment and prejudice against blacks more than 150 years after the Civil War. I say hurray for the players - they found a venue with huge media coverage.
I also agree with the comment from djfrodo that both the military and the NFL, a quasi-military organization, have infused patriotism into football games, as well as other USA sports.

re: FBI Director James Comey has been fired (abcnews.go.com) originally posted by eugene
jeannie's reply 5 years ago

I think the anger expressed by both Presidents is similiar, but the actual circumstances were very different. If Trump fired Comey to create a cover-up, then he badly mis-judged the press and many of the public. Nixon was days away from being forced to resign; Trump has a longer leash, I believe. Unless, of course, he self-destructs further...
