Jack’s Winning Words 2/27/19
“There are many ways of moving forward, but only one way of standing still.” (FDR) It was a horrible time to be POTUS, at the beginning of the Great Depression. Dramatic changes had to be made. Standing still was not an option. Roosevelt had a way with words and was able to convince most people that his way was the right way. No matter what the problem, if you take no action, it will remain a problem. A work issue, a marriage issue, a health issue… ;-) Jack
FROM ST PAUL IN MESA: FDR was a gutsy leader who had a whole bunch of good ideas! for a guy in a wheel chair, he did amazing things!===JACK: His brain wasn't in a wheelchair.
FROM OUTHOUSE JUDY: When the President talked, people listened. It stopped I believe with the Clinton Era. When he was caught lying it seemed people lost their respect for the office. Yes I know about Nixon but he was not popular like Clinton.===JACK: Whether it be Nixon, Clinton or Trump, it seems as though we, as a nation, are more accepting of immoral behavior. It distresses me that some church leaders overlook that in favor of personal agendas.===JUDY: It is distressing. The morals have disappeared. They aren’t teaching them at home or at school or, like you said, in church. You would love going to the home school co-op Noah attends. The children have manners, talk nicely and are polite.
