He offered some Historical Perspective on the intersection of National Turmoil and a president ial race. You know, scott, watching all of this unfold, more and more, this remind me of my first convention, the 1968 convention in chicago. When the Democratic Party tore itself apart literally in unpopular war in the assassinations of bobby contend and Martin Luther king. We wondered if the country was coming apart but it didnt. Now after another horrendous day in baton rouge, we are feeling a sense of helplessness and loss of confidence in our institutions, as we did then. They seem impotent in a growing divide is coming between blacks and whites. As this convention unfolds, there will be a lot of talk and no instant solutions will be found here nor will there be any such thing at next weeks democratic gathering. These problems have been a long time building and they wont be involved in the next two weeks. Democrats and republicans now face the same challenge, find ways to Work Together to solve our problems, or they can continue to work against each other and the one thing we do know is, so far, that approach hasnt worked very well.
