I adore him even if he is soft on certain things like Standing Rock and Aleppo

Complicated stuff.

Same with Hillary last night.

I think both were shook up by some tightening of the race

In fact he was the one counting the house at her last Greensboro appearance and making people comply with fire marshall. He wasn't popular but he did meet and get a photo with Hillary.

All those college students in the background, nodding their heads in agreement.

The majority will grow up self identifying as Democrats and voting blue. I guess it's called Generation Z, although I've lost track of things like that.

No he's not perfect. But damn, he is a genuinely caring human being. There is no veneer, no artifice. Just heart, and lots of it.

I will miss him so much. Grateful that he came along during my lifetime.
