I grew up in a yellow dog democratic home and listened on the radio to Stevenson accept the nomination in 1952. I couldn't believe he didn't win . I still have great difficulty accepting that a large percentage of our population doesn't vote like I do .

I would like to meet someone with whom I could talk . I miss pleasant conversations about current affairs, politics as well as lighter , funnier issues. I would like to listen while someone talks and I would like someone to listen while I talk.
