I hope that many I have had heated exchanges with find this message well. My change of heart and mind concerning the election this year came at a the least suspecting of moments.

Let's play the hypothetical what if game. In this what if game let's hypothesize a voting record we have been unable to capture because said person never served. Be it as it may I will attempt to lay out my case as to why I am unable to vote for Donald Trump.

(Some readers might remember playing with this feature on Microsoft Word when writing up school reports — to see how highbrow their writing was.)"

"Vladimir Putin seized Ukraine's Crimean peninsula on Thursday, and Barack Obama delivered a short statement about it on Friday. The former tells us nothing we didn't know already about Russia's strongman. The latter tells us everything we need to know about a weak president's feckless foreign policy. Let's take a look at what Mr. Obama had to say: "I also spoke several days ago with President Putin, and my administration has been in daily contact with Russian officials." "OK, but why?
