IF HE COULD SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING IN GOVERNMENT TODAY, he would have run for office back in the 50s...
He used to tell me that if I read the newspaper every day and voted for the right man, not the party, I would be doing my duty as an American citizen. He spent 45 years working for the railroad, as a Conductor on a passenger train. It almost broke his heart when the passenger trains were allowed to stop running and the government came up with the brilliant failure that is called Amtrak. I think he could get a glimpse of America's future when he passed away in 1984, but if he had lasted until today, he would have been one very pissed off man of 105 years of age...
