I supported others ahead of him, while never denying his heroism and his devotion to America. I have come to realize, now, that I will have absolutely no compunction supporting him with every fiber of my being. I might actually be a trifle ashamed that I didn't supporting him when he was down. Won't it be a refreshing change to have an actual American hero in the White House? The legacy left us by other war hero Presidents, in the office, were dirtied by Clinton. Thank God that age is past. With God's help it will not return in any way shape or form.
