        How I miss those days! My greatest fear for Millennials is that we have failed to show them an example of what politics as public service looks like, what caring for one another as a society is like, so that they cannot imagine it.

        This is very and sadly true. My 21 year old, whose future I'm fighting for, does not grasp the depths of my anxiety or passion. He already thinks corruption and failing government is the norm. Breaks my heart. He will vote though. He has promised.

        This is what class and “being presidential” looks like. Today we will witness another public servant eulogized who exhibited the same attributes.

        Telegrams, for some reason, seem much more profound than tweets. Oh well

        Ahhh, true. Telegrams took a bit more effort, kind of like a handwritten letter with an actual postage stamp

        Lance Armstrong once stopped, mid-race, while a competitor changed a tire. This feels similar, but the roles reversed.
