I promised myself if I ever go back to school and get an advanced degree it will be in military science.
You know, in preparation of the coming Hard Times.
I work with a diverse group. It’s fun to tell a Chinese dude that his government killed thousands at Tien Amin Square. They have no idea.
Oh, and young people suck. They don’t know squat, and I think it is by design.
About two months before the election, I decided to educate them, and give them the reasons why I thought Reagan would be a far better President than Carter.
I had a great education through college: I attended CA public schools when they were the best in the nation (I tested at 12th grade reading level in 6th grade), and Gonzaga is a great university. It wasn't until after I graduated that I appreciated the core curriculum of this Jesuit university.
At the ripe old age of 26, I schooled the mostly middle aged neighbors of mine on American history and civics, and world history, all in German...my German was very good as I had been in country nearly four years. My main point was that the world is a safer place when America is strong, and I believed that Reagan would deliver on his promise to strengthen the US economically and militarily.
My case was won on Inauguration Day when Iran released the hostages.
