Happy Holidays dear friends!

Their madness is insidious, and evil: they want to incompetent us to death. They want to dumb decision us to death. They want to bludgeon us with buffoonery and strangle us with stupidity to death.

The choices are Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders: two men who, while not perfect, not without their faults, have a TON more in common with my view of how America should be governed than the unfit, unhinged buffoon who currently occupies that office.

After all, I had been the beneficiary of an excellent private school education: I had a scholarship to The Dalton School, an exclusive prep school from which I received an extraordinary head start. And I had a family and friends that loved me.

Things may seem dark right now, but within each of us there is a light that is brighter than all of the lights that went out that hot August night. We can, and will, light the way towards recovery.

Fear is a powerful thing. They say fear is a motivator. It can motivate us to get out of the way of a vehicle speeding in our direction, and other obvious, immediate threats to our personal safety.
