Well said. That moral arc extends into the unseen future but we can make progress if we remain committed to what makes America great.

I was at that game when Ross Barnett gave that halftime speech. I knew what was going on then but really was too young to fully understand it. But generally, because I was young, the overall feeling I had was of optimism for a future that lay ahead. It is hard to find that positive feeling these days. Your words renew hope, and I thank you for that.

I was lying in bed this morning despairing of our future and your words were just the words I needed to hear. As much as I love Rick Wilson's fiery rhetoric, your calming words of hope and strength nourish my soul. Thank you.
