[Rhodes22-list] Soup or Tuesday

[john Belanger]

herb,
  you sound like an isolationist from the 30's. it didn't work then, and i don't think it works now. if we are not involved, and helping, to make the world a better place, then we are not worthy of respect by other nations.

An entire paragraph outlining why you would vote for the person to lead 
our country, and it all boils down to raising our stature in the eyes of

I DON'T GIVE A RIP about our stature in the eyes of other nations, and I 
will NEVER choose a President on that basis.

You obviously paid close attention the PC classes.
