Watching "The Way I See it"

from MSNBC. Pete Souza and Obama.

Just saw a Sandy Hook parent talking about Obama "There is no substitute for empathy" and I thought to myself that with all the words used to describe Trump, Empathy would never even be considered. I suspect he could not understand the concept even if you gave him examples.

If you watch this documentary, you will cry several times.

Yes teared up a number of times.
Pete Souza is articulate and empathetic.

I miss Obama so much.

The Audacity of Hope last year and had to stop reading it because I couldn't stand to read what he was writing while we had that HOG occupying our White House. The contrast was just too much to bear.

I did watch "The Way I See It" AFTER the election - it was so much easier to handle that way - and knowing that better days are ahead - starting THIS WEDNESDAY at NOON!!!!!

And yes, it IS a fantastic production!
