[Vision2020] Dems platform

[Dick Schmidt]

Pat,

I really enjoyed your comparison of the Democrat's convention to an Amway
meeting and that the Republican's convention will probably be the same. That
is probably as descriptive as it gets. I've never been to an Amway meeting
but lived in Michigan most of my life and heard lots of stories.

Sounds like the balloons raised someone's blood pressure!
