He played well. He played clean. And his off field life was quiet.

He IS the player that your aspiring ball players should emulate.

I don’t know his politics. I don’t care. He was a baseball player and his vote counts as much as mine.

He was excellent at what he did. That’s good enough for me.

And I am a Red Sox fan. (He is no Bucky F’ing Dent.)

“And I am a Red Sox fan.”

I’m a Sox fan too and watched today-—and watched the video of his walk-off and celebration the other night.

A great rivalry-—a great player.

Well, Derek Jeter was a leftist supporting the usurper in both of the stolen elections. But yes, sadly, you're right. His vote counts as much as that of a Patriot. It's a pity that my vote -- which has always been for Conservatives since I proudly pulled the lever (remember those?) for Barry Goldwater in 1964 -- is canceled out by the likes of Al Sharpton and other deceitful abortionists.

I don't know how it could be implemented nowadays, but I'd like to see a return to voting model set forth by the Founding Fathers of a limited form of enfranchisement. Tom Tancredo's idea of a civics literacy test was a good a idea but, alas, the devil would've been in the details. Frankly, I've never thought the notion of "one man, one vote" was constitutional. It gives undue power at the ballot box to liberals whose aim is to destroy America though abortion, sodomy and gun-grabbing.
