I always thought that my grandmother’s maden name was “Bush”. I never mentioned during the elder Bush’s term out of shame.  
Genealogic research shows her name to have been spelled “Busch”. I’m thankfull that her name is that of a beer brand, not that of a president elect!  
A fond fairwell to Bill & Al, I truly liked the longest good economic times in our history!  
I believe that the era of high employment & prosperity is history.  
I’ve heard that the country is split 50/50. Wrong! we are split 25/25. The other 50% didn’t bother to vote!  
ONLY VOTERS MAY REPLY!

P.S. Forgive my rant!
