One last comment on one of my original impressions; Jimmy Carter, and his "Malaise" speech. As everyone should know by now, the word "Malaise" never appeared in his original speech. I know, I watched him deliver it on a tattered black and white television on the roof of an old warehouse in Galveston, Texas. I was 22 years old and had waited in line for gasoline the day before. President Carter had something important to say and we should have listened. Instead, the country elected Ronald Reagan, and we moved on. The solar panels were removed from the roof of the White House and the press and Conservatives concentrated on the diminution of Jimmy Carter and his intelligent, plainspoken prescience.

So, please vote, let's stop this nonsense. It's time to put away the Holy Reagan Icons and devotional trinkets.
