I am 80-years old. Over the years, I have
heard versions of this same rhetoric—here by Charlie Chaplin but most of the
time from presidents and world leaders, religious leaders, winners of the Nobel
Laureate peace prize, celebrities and others—time and time again. Seventy-seven
years later nothing has changed. Seventy-seven years from now nothing will
change either. Sad commentary on our world. We talk about it but we don't unite
to make it happen. Instead we accept men like Donald Trump, who does not
possess one endearing quality—politically, morally, or ethically—to lead . . .
that apparently too many of us would want our children to emulate, and we
accept "alternate facts" and "truthful hyperbole" as being
acceptable as fact.
