Indeed, I hope so too. I love the goodness of the man and his wife. He sure isn't perfect, but then neither are any of us. I will always believe God raised him up for a time such as this. He certainly needs to be in prayer a lot and I pray the next president will also be a praying MAN. Mxxx

Well here in Michigan, huge crowds turned out. Half my family went at 6pm and got thru at 11, the rest of us went at 0230 and finished at 0530.

The people who count turned out.

In my part of the country, when a funeral procession goes by, no matter who it is, people pull over and get out of their vehicles .

Indeed they do! When my sister passed away in GA as the procession passed through city streets, people on the sidewalk stopped, faced the procession and placed their had over their heart. Out on a 4-lane highway, people traveling in the opposite direction stopped their cars, got out and placed their hand over their heart. Just a matter of showing respect.
