3. Thanks for posting this.

I remember asking my mom about this once a few years ago. She said people "sort of knew" that something was going on, but not much was really said about it. Obviously easier to pull off before television. Can you just imagine if the press had the attack dog mentality then as they do now? At least when it comes to Democrats.

4. That IS rare, Thanks! The closest I've been to a President (and First Lady) was at FDR wheelchair

statue dedication during the Clinton years. It is in the beautiful parkland along Patomic basin, a short stroll from the MLK statue.
I remarked how quiet it was given that we were near Washington's busy airport and my father reminded me that there is always a 'no fly zone' above where the President is attending.
