I’m older than you, so I’ve always been registered as a Democrat so that I could vote in primaries. Chiefly, it started out as voting against Reagan, but my parents always said one must keep an open mind or forfeit learning. My dad was a publisher of a newspaper and my mother was an English teacher. They taught us to read everything we could on a topic and then question the answers. I’m so grateful they taught me that, and I did the same with my children. Independence is important.

I think we’re all pretty fed up with both parties at this point. Read everything you question, then question the answers that you’ve found.

Great life lessons for sure. My dad was also the editor and publisher of a newspaper.

Newspapermen are (were?) a special breed, especially in the Mad Men generation my parents came from. ❤️

Please look at Lauren Pinkston, independent TN Governor candidate! http://PinkstonforTN.com ( running against Marsha Blackburn on the Rep side.)

As a UM graduate and a Montana resident since 2004, I am so pleased to see you sharing this. We can and will do better. Anxiously looking forward to my opportunity to sign the petition to get Seth on the ballot. PS: I came here for the lentil recipe and I'm so glad I found this!
