he told me the prelim vetting ended after discussion with the local party elites about his Boy Scout leadership, whihc he refuised to abandon

(in a childless marriage- his Scouts are his kids

He has mentored literally hundreds of young men in a relatively depressed blue collar area ... his Dad was a well-respected local mayor for many years, the governor came to his funeral when he died

Your cousin is a true American hero.

My son and I traveled to my home town this past summer to celebrate the 50th anniversary of my old boy scout troop.
6 of the first 10 eagle scouts (9 surviving attended).
Adult founders of the troop are still active and helping
mentor kids. My mom sewed scout neckerchiefs for almost 30 years. These people are my heroes.
