This is every holiday I spend with my family. My father has voted straight republican his entire life, and a common quote from him was, "I'd vote for the Berwick Bridge, if it's on the republican ticket." Local reference, sorry. I worked on him every single day in the year leading up to the last presidential election, and eventually he voted for Kerry. It was one of the hardest jobs I've ever done, even harder than roofing near Canada in December.
Anyway, I really enjoyed the article. The best we can do is teach our kids not to trust anyone who hasn't earned it.
