@Jennifer I Have never been proud or ashamed of an accident of birth. I did not chose nor have any influence in being America. Nationalism is just another form of prejudice.

I am proud of the fact that I voted against what is transpiring today in America. That I did everything I could do to avoid it. It is unfortunate that I failed; though I did what I could reasonably do.

If you also have done what you could then you have no reason to be embarrassed. You did the right thing. We are not responsible for the rash and irresponsible behavior of others. Even if we must live with their mistakes.

We can get through these four years together. Stay strong.
Take Care
