Hi Barry,
While I agree that our leaders will not come together as they should at this time, they have in the past laid party politics aside for the greater good. I think the best example is when Wendell Wilkie went to England to meet with Churchill after losing a very bitter election with FDR. Wilkie was against getting into the war and against FDR's policies, but he put that aside and represented the President in a very key time and place. Too bad Speaker Pelosi couldn't follow the same path. Be well Brian

PS I encourage everyone who can to attend a service at Arlington, or visit your local VA, so you can appreciate the sacrifices being made.
