        America went from Robert Frost reciting his own poetry to Donald Trump reading "The Snake" at CPAC.

        I love these photos.This one has also "triggered" a memory for me. Elementary School, reading the poem "Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening." I can still see the illustration that accompanied the poem. I even remember the title of the textbook, "English Is Our Language." 😃

        The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep. ...... Robert Frost

        I loved JFK as a child. Loved Robert Frost. My interest in politics started as a child during his election. Stayed up and watched the conventions. Passed out flyers for Robert Kennedy while in 7th grade.

        A few moments later Frost was having trouble reading as it was a very bright day with fresh snow. JFK gets up and shields Frost's notes with his (JFK's) hat.

        Wow! How historic of an event. Imagine what it was like to be in that crowd and hear a legend of poetry recite his poems.

        I would bet Trump has no idea who Robert Frost is. But he wrote about walls, didn't he.
