Re: Doesn’t Matter Who Wins the K Race; We’re All the Same
RIP John Conyers. In the 1990s I flew to DC every other week for work. Due to a certain fact I was always able to fly First Class. Congress gets free upgrades so I was always around Congress people (Senators get free upgrades too but they were aware of the optics and sat in coach). Anyhoo, congress people, Dems and R's both, seemed the most self-absorbed grand standing asses, working the Crowd- then I saw I was sitting next to Congressman Conyers and he was next to what I assumed was his grandson (found out later likely his son, but still). He was in the moment being with the young man, oblivious to the crowd, not a second of grandstanding. I certainly didn't agree with many of his positions, but he just seemed this real human being- very rare in that job. I was impressed.
