[FRIAM] Being Political

[Frank Wimberly]

Most of those look good, George,  Note that when we say someone is too old
we say that from the perspective of someone who is older than they are.  At
least I do.

In the election of 1984(?) my mother-in-law and a friend organized a
Committee to Retire the President.  Membership was restricted to women
whose husbands were Reagan's age.  Their point was that they live with
someone as old as Reagan and know what they're talking about.
I think Trump is not only too old but has other mental defects which make
him a dangerous president.

I am glad to see that Stacy Abrams's name is not among your
vice-presidential choices but is nonetheless in the cabinet.
