Letters to the Editor
Readers pitched their favorite songs to celebrate America; revered the wit of Franklin; noted contrasts in the debate; argued for age and term limits; and cited the need for accountability in public schools.
How can you leave out Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA”? Instead we got “Party in the USA.” Really?I have to make just one small correction: I do think those who write to the paper are very clever and witty already. I often remark to friends after reading the how bright and amusing those authors are in their words and ideas. I also think it’s important to contribute by letter, and I look forward to learning something new each day from others in my neighborhood.
Age is a cruel master, and President Joe Biden has shown the effects. Toxic self-aggrandizement is the hallmark of former President Donald Trump. We are locked in a battle of style vs. substance, with both sides willing to sell their collective souls. There appears to be no good outcome.Perhaps one candidate will relinquish his need for acclamation and perhaps give the nation a chance for survival. The story of Solomon deciding on the maternal parentage of the baby may offer some guidance.
I’m a naturalized citizen, and voting is very important to me. What I want in a leader is ethics, principles, morals and civility.I hope that this kangaroo court of an election cycle has every millennial and Gen Zer on the same page: We critically need term limits and potentially age restrictions for representation.
