    As has pointed out, it's also grotesquely dishonest. If Ocasio-Cortez had gone to Harvard and Shapiro were the bartender, Mandel would depict her as the undeserving, elitist snob who fled from the superior, hard-won wisdom of the common working man.

    Democrats, please do not distance yourselves from Nancy Pelosi. She is a wonderful person whose ideas & policies may be bad, but who should definitely be given a 4th chance. She is trying very hard & has every right to take down the Democrat Party if she has veered too far left!

    Wow..a college classmate, old friend and avid runner just dropped dead of a heart attack. Visually, he would not be seen as a likely candidate for a heart attack. There are no guarantees in life; all you can do is to stack the odds in your favor.

    Funny. But I’m less concerned about her, and more concerned about the millions of people who agree with her. I don’t know how to solve this gnawing anger at “the other” that Trump has motivated. It won’t be with funny photos or gifs, that I know.

    Not all learning (especially of math) is fun, and concepts without automatic mastery of elementary steps is of limited use. Barbara Oakley aims her applied cog psych at parents of girls, but it applies to both sexes.

    Background: there is also a larger 4 mile race that finishes on the same course, and there is an elite division for that race. I've been told that there are people in the stands but I've never finished fast enough to see them. 😄

    It amazes me when they get arrested on felony charges they take the pity pill and start waxing on about how they‘ve always been “concerned” only about “serving my constituents”.
