Two Years before This Photo Was Taken, I Was a Campaign Volunteer for JFK


That photo of my and the family dog was taken 60 years ago, when I was 16 years old. Today, I'm 77 years old. It's incredible to me that the person that was that high school kid is still involved in politics and still trying to elect Democrats to office.

JFK was my introduction into Democratic politics. While much about me has changed, that 16-year-old is still alive in me, and still just as committed to trying to move the USA in a progressive direction. There have been many setbacks and challenges, but I still have the same hope in my heart that I had over sixty years ago. I'm still hoping to see more progress take place.

That's why I constantly post this on my posts on DU:

GOTV!

Isn't MM about due for another shoulder replacement from continually patting himself on the back?

So, what Rockhead is telling us is that he never grew out of being a stupid teenager.

Absolutely true. On most issues, JFK would considered an "Ultra MAGA Extremist Republican".

Neither did 95% of the rest of the DUmp Monkies. Which is sad, since the majority of them are sept-/oct-igenarians by now.

Is it just me, and maybe because the age of the photo, resolution, angle, etc, but he looks to be a 40 year old man?  :???:

While much about me has changed...

Obviously.  JFK cut taxes and government-revenue rose.

By modern Prog standards, JFK was a ravening Fascist and a woman-abuser deserving to be #MeTooed.

So what you're saying, is that in 62 years you've learned nothing.

Well, in 62 years of following the magic golden D, MM hasn’t noticed how far, far, left the D Party has raced. He didn’t even notice, despite being the son of an orchardist , how anti-agriculture the D Party has been, for decades. So I’d say he’s learned less than nothing.
