Please do not allow emotions that ought to be separated from politics to creep into your head as you vote for the highest office in the nation.
It seems religion may rob the President of fulfilling his vision, and that would be a sad day for this nation.
Religion is a personal journey and ought to be kept so. If this is a public face of religion, this deeply spiritual and also religious man from India may decide to turn athiest.
I first saw this a couple of days ago and can't bring myself to watch it again. The innocence of the boy contrasts so sharply against the hatred and glee of the adults--it's shocking and cruel and painful and incredibly hurtful.
It makes me wonder if I would speak up if I were in that situation...surrounded by cheering and hate-filled people. What would I say? Would I have the courage to face that kind of evil?
If I had the chance and didn't, I don't know how I would ever get over it.
But I do have the chance don't I? Come November, I can speak up.
I hate this video. But I need to see it, I need to be aware.
