No middle school election

I agree with your endorsement, and you hit the mark with both Trump and Clinton.

Early on in the primary, it became obvious Donald was a 70-year-old seventh-grader. I have been a seventh-grader, raised seventh-graders and loved grandchild who were seventh-graders. They are not to be trusted!

They can be lovable and charming and everyone who lives to be 20 or so goes through it. And it is OK, it is a part of growing up. But God help those who don't go through it but remain suspended there for life as Donald has.

These individuals become a great danger to anyone they have power over. They lack the necessary skills to make informed decisions while having power to rule according to their whims.

Hopefully history has taught us to recognize the absurdity of such a person's behavior. Pay attention folks. This is not a middle school election for class president.

This is a matter of real life and death.
