Past as prologue....In 1964, my rabbi devoted his Yom Kippur sermon to "Why Jews shouldn't vote for Barry Goldwater".I, then a precocious 16 years old, and about ONLY teenager campaigning for Barry in the Bronx...got up from my seat in the middle of this screed..and to my mother's mortification, walked out on the rabbi, and the entire 500+ congregation..right down the center aisle and out the door.


Wow, that's one heck of a scene! You had a lot of backbone for a 16 year old to do that...especially back then.
