holes . . . in our world . . .

It was Adlai Stevenson who campaigned with a hole in shoes . . . a brilliant guy . . . he pointed me toward the type of politics that had some appeal for me . . . but it was George McGovern who campaigned with a hole in his heart . . . more than just a decent man, a man of much compassion . . . he is in hospice near the end of his life. Remembering what he attenpted . . . this deserves a candle in the window . . .
