        He was doomed after that horrible convention. Too bad, he sure would have been better than Nixon.

        I personally don’t think the country has been this divided since the 1960s in the Vietnam War. History repeats itself I guess especially if it ends like Watergate.

        Me too. I remember telling my US history classes that they had NO experience with the degree of anger and volatility in the nation at the end of the ‘60s. In the context of how amazing it felt to be at Woodstock. 😁 I too hope that impeachment or open trials can be a catharsis.

        Shook his hand on the tarmac in Rochester when he was on the stump. Great honor.

        I was one of those “hippies” in Chicago in 1968 and a hapless grunt not 8 months later.

        So instead of Benghazi, we should be screaming "GUATEMALA!!!!"?
