I can't believe how much I've enjoyed watching the RNC Convention on C-Span. The pacing of the speeches, the quality of the speakers and most importantly the content of the speeches has been terrific.
I love my country. I want everyone to be able to live in peace. I want everyone to have an equal opportunity to succeed in whatever they pursue. The Pubs are making it clear they represent "fly over country" not the corporate or govt. elites.
@biloI agree with every word you wrote,but have to admit I was actually surprised to enjoy watching and listening to the convention. They usually bore me to tears or make me even more cynical than I am anyway,but neither happened a single time this year.
The last time I can remember being moved at all by a political convention was when Julian Bond (I think that was his name) gave a speech at a Dim convention in Atlanta in the 60's,talking all about peace,brotherhood,equality,etc,etc,etc. I was actually moved to tears by that speech.
I still didn't vote,though. I was a soldier then and didn't think it was right for soldiers to vote. I still don't think soldiers should vote.
