I’m fine with him.  One area he immediately took front and center on was the 
tax code section.  I want to see that business experience put to use running 
the country and negotiating with other countries.

As much as I hate to point it out, "you republicans" (of which i am one) voted 
him in.
it wasn't some conspiracy....

and i for one hope his business sense will do wonders for the country.  i don't 
much care about the rest of it

Decorum, decency, character.... Where did they go?    I agree, we are in bad 
place with the choices we have... But spooky part is how we got here.... You 
Republican guys had an army of candidates... All better choices than Fuckwad 
Trump, even Prick Perry or Cruz, yuk.... But no... And the loyalty no matter 
what he does reminds me of Hitler and his followers... On other side.. Sanders 
was better choice but Hillary had more going for her... Can't say I  happy 
about it, but she is smarter than Trump.   Johnson needs a class on current 
events.    I pray for our country... Lincoln ,Reagan and Kennedy are spinning 
away... Like I said before.. New source of clean energy
..and on side note... I wish the aliens that followed Columbus's fleet had sunk 
them... Oh well.

    Abraham Lincoln, first inaugural address.  An effort to stave off the Civil 
war.

Of the presidents I have been aware of during my short life, in my opinion only 
the following would have had the temperament to  have penned the quote:
Kennedy
Regan
Perhaps Bill Clinton
Maybe Obama but probably not.

And then this:

Executive Mansion,
Washington, Nov. 21, 1864.

Dear Madam,

I have been shown in the files of the War Department a statement of the 
Adjutant General of Massachusetts that you are the mother of five sons who have 
died gloriously on the field of battle.
I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to 
beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from 
tendering to you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the 
Republic they died to save.
I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, 
and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn 
pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of 
Freedom.

Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,
A. Lincoln.

Mrs. Bixby.



Neither of our candidates could do this.  They could get an aide to perhaps pen 
something similar, but if you consider their heart, neither possess this type 
of heartfelt caring or duty to serve.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a president that truly has these kinds of thoughts 
and feelings?
Someone that could be a role model for kids.
I wonder if it will ever happen again.
