Way off topic, sorry! I just read Uncle Tom’s Cabin for the first time. WHERE did people get the idea that Tom was a weakling? That was one of the strongest characters I have ever read in literature!

Back to the convention...sorry. Every time I hear “Uncle Tom” now, I wonder if the person speaking has read the book and knows how great the character was.

I’m pretty dang sure it was him. I don’t know if his being there is a reflection of his political leanings. I’m guessing he’s more of a gun for hire for the music at the convention.

See they’re still using the moving background.

Rights are a gift from God. Good closing for the AG’s
