      Did not mean to offend by quoting Churchill. My apologies. I will go and educate myself further on his atrocities, racist views which I do not support. My point was we need to come together as one nation. We are all Americans. That should transcend partisan politics.

      Please don’t apologize. Winston Churchill, like all of us, had serious human failings. But unlike most of us—he possessed genuine greatness. And that greatness may have saved freedom & democracy. Ask the Twitter scolds to name a hero or heroine who didn’t have serious flaws.

          I just don't understand the purity demands from grown adults - demanding that historical figures be perfect, which is to say, not quite human. To be human is to be flawed, and also, historical figures are people of their time -- holding some views we find ugly and backward now.

          I know.And what is the point? Gandhi was racist &sexist. MLK, plagiarized & committed adultery. Elizabeth Cady Stanton—elitist, racist, misanthrope. Fine. But all 3 are rightly revered because they possessed sublime gifts & moved the needle toward progress as none had before.

          I think the 3 million people Stalin killed in gulags or in forced resettlements would probably favor Churchill, too.
