(115,679 posts)Maybe you can make weather balloons or something practical like that. Civil rights? That's going to take a long time and will be pretty difficult. Too bad about that black kid who wanted to go to the University of Mississippi, or those other students in Alabama, but I can't see any reason to waste federal money on National Guard involvement. It will all sort itself out eventually. I was thinking about a program I wanted to call "The New Frontier," which would provide money for education, medical care for the elderly, and economic aid to rural areas, but I changed my mind because I didn't think it would go anywhere - it would just be too hard. All the sensible people tell me not to rock the boat and try to change things too much...

Too bad she's not that ambitious when it comes to the idea of making single payer a reality.
