It isn't a campaign platform, just a visit, a part of a trip.... that he would be remiss to not acknowledge in a humble way, much as a visit to Aushwitz would mean he would have to speak of the horror that occurred there.

I agree that we can't and shouldn't carry guilt for actions before our time..... But it isn't impolite to apologize to those long dead on behalf of a country when in such a place.

Acknowledge, yes.

Apologize, no.

That's all I'm sayin'.
