boy, it is obvious everyone has really strong feelings either way with the flag pin. my strong feelings are about his explanation...instead of wearing the pin he is going to tell the american people how to make this country great! ergo, he does not think this country is great already, and neither do his wife or his church fellows. that is the problem i have with him. i have lived in several other countries and i can honestly say i KNOW this country is great! we may have our problems and we may argue about the issues and even the trivial things, but i do not think any thoughtful person who analyzes his remark and puts all the pieces together will still think that he should lead our country. at least i hope that is how it is by november! i hope i will still have all you gals as friends by the time i get to the villages!
