Re:So you say!

I never said I was looking to elect the most holy person as president, you`re the one that insinuated that since Sanders is a Jew he would somehow be a more Jesus-like person.   I`m looking for the Republican that has the least apprehension to kick the Democrats in the box.  And the best qualified to do that is Donald Trump.

 I started out to be a teacher but left school after one year to pursue a farming career. I found out later in life that i could hardy tolerate my own smart a** kids let alone someone elses smart a** kids. I have alot of respect for teachers as my kids got the best of small town education and those teachers care. When my youngest got her doctorate in pharmacy, her second grade teacher offered her congratulations. That's along time to hold someone in esteem. I guess our kids were her kids as well.
