As all
Sport Aficionados
know in
America,
the
playoffs begun yesterday.
If you have read my

consistently,
you know that I predicted,
at the begging of the football season,
that the

Well,

So what city in Canada are you moving to?
The
Post
is about how I compare
Today's World
to that of growing up during the
1960s.
With all the
Doom & Gloom
that we are bombarded with,
on a daily basis,
Today
doesn't even compare to the turmoil during that earlier time.
The only difference is the speed in which we can communicate with one another,
so any
News Story
is instantly seen by millions instead of days,
and anyone who has a computer
and can type has a platform for his
or her opinions.
Be they
Good Or Bad,
and
Truthful Or Not.
Since
Scaring People
sells,
most information out there nowadays is to frighten people.
But to answer their question,
during the
1968 Presidential Race,
Governor George Wallace
ran as a third party candidate
and was so influential,
he carried the so called
"Solid South."
And we are still feeling his racial rants today,
from the
Republican Party.
"The Huntsville Times political editor John Anderson summarized the impact from the 1968 campaign: His startling appeal to millions of alienated white voters was not lost on Richard Nixon and other GOP strategists. First Nixon, then Ronald Reagan, George Herbert Walker Bush, and finally Donald Trump successfully adopted toned-down versions of Wallace's anti-busing, anti-federal government platform to pry low- and middle-income whites from the Democratic New Deal coalition. Dan Carter, a professor of history at Emory University in Atlanta, added: "George Wallace laid the foundation for the dominance of the Republican Party in American society through the manipulation of racial and social issues in the 1960s and 1970s. He was the master teacher, and the Republican leadership that followed were his students." - Wikipedia -
To finally answer the question,
"So what city in Canada are you moving to?"
was an actual question my
Parents
were asking themselves,
if
Governor Wallace
had won.
My
Mother
did say to us kids,
that we were going to move to
Canada
if he had won!
She just didn't say which city.
