So many people I have seen post on here and thought were nice compassionate people, I now see for what they really are as a result of a presidential election.
Amazing that what candidates say can leave an imprint on our hearts if we believe so strongly.
Not one word on this forum about the problems facing this country, as if the color of your skin or your religion was the problem. Our President elect is wished well on his economic plans, and his plans to combat terrorism in the world for sure, but I do not wish him luck IF....IF....his agenda is what his followers on this forum think they are.

You can't judge The Villages by this forum.
Folks need a place to speak their mind with no repercussions. This is an excellent venue for it. I doubt there is one person on here that I would not get along with in person. Every person on here would go out of their way to assist you if you were in need, I have no doubt at all.
No one should take anything said on here seriously enough to cause them stress, because no one on here means anyone harm. This is just a means to express your thoughts without worrying about hurting anyone's feelings. Try talking like this to your family and they will disown you. Although, I get away with a heated argument with my brother because we have always been this way. But, when it's time to break for supper or whatever, we laugh and enjoy our meal or whatever. Our wives used to think we were going to end up in a fight, but it has NEVER happened. No one even goes away mad.
You would be surprised as to how much you can learn about current events by reading on here. Many times I have read something and immediately researched it's veracity.
This is not how any of us act in pubic so those that read this can be comforted to know that The Villages really is a friendly place to live. I bet there is no other place in America that is as generous with charity as in The Villages.
