Another Must-Read Endorsement.

Susan Eisenhower.

 Given Romney’s shifting positions, he can only be judged by the people with whom he surrounds himself. Many of them espouse yesterday’s thinking on national defense and security, female/family reproductive rights, and the interplay of government and independent private enterprise. In this context, Barack Obama represents the future, not that past. His emphasis on education is an example of the importance he places on preparing rising generations to assume their places as innovators and entrepreneurs, workers and doers, and responsible citizens and leaders. He recognizes, as many of us do, that access to opportunities must be open to every American, regardless of race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status. This is not an entitlement, but a sound investment in the future.

Amen.

    Amen indeed!! I have friends who say they don't want to bother to vote because they are disappointed in Obama. I am going to make sure they read this piece plus the one from the New Yorker.
    Thanks so much for sharing. God help us all if Obama loses...

  2. yes, Amen.

    Thanks for posting this comment by Julie Eisenhower. It shows that we have a great middle ground of people who know that what has been going on, just for most of the new century and forget about before that time, cannot continue.
