#ElectionDay
It is seven o’clock in the morning. The wind is chilled against my cheeks and the draft is finding its way nicely up my winter coat. I am standing outside a polling location with five of my friends, with a clipboard of ballots in hand, looking to make a difference.
On its face, in times of crisis, we love to say “United We Stand, Divided We Fall,” as a theme of unity. The words were used in a rock-ish love song in 1969 [Brotherhood of Man, and later by Glen Campbell & Anne Murray, Elton John and 100 others].

Dear Eadsians:
God Bless America. I love this country... I took a trip across our country to Florida. It was truly reaffirming to see our country in bits and pieces. Not since I was in law enforcement have I interacted with so many diverse people from all walks and sections of life. Not once did I have a negative encounter with another human. Although crowded and noisy in places, there were so many individuals along the way, regardless of race, ethnicity, age, nationality or gender, that were helpful, courteous and like our country a great panoply of people.
