"I Like The Man With The Brown Skin"

My nearly eight year old grandson was watching the debates with his mother and me tonight. He listened intently. And he commented on what he was hearing. Here's a glimpse of our evening:
Why? "Because he wants to protect the children".

Later he said...."if the children aren't cared for, there won't be any grown ups later".

He referred to McCain as "the white skinned man". He didn't like him citing "with war, people fight and they die and then there's less people to love".

I love the compassion he shows and the logic his young mind has assembled.

Folks - if this is a glimpse of our future -it's all going to be all right.
