Great column today, Patti. You're spot on when you note that we grew up cherishing certain American ideals. This line deeply resonated for me: "First, it presupposed that good, moral, smart people would be elected." Every day, I ask myself why so many people would elect a criminal for president -- and defend the ongoing immoral/criminal behavior of the president's cabinet. I now think of the entire Republican party as a group of people who have no moral values, and would do anything for power. Is this making America great again?
As a former North Carolinian and Tar Hill who spent many summers near Hendersonville, your photo brought tears to my eyes! And your letter to the police chief was brilliant 🧡
a resounding YES. So well articulated and throughout I see you, the core that shapes you, in your words. We need this clarity more than ever now. I hope this prompts introspection and action with conviction in many. For myself it reinforces the underpinnings of my work of 25 years.

As a failed grammarian I thought it was a verb. I just discovered your writing, good stuff.
Please send this to Sen. Tillis and Sen. Budd!
Patti Digh at her best !!!
