On this Veterans Day, I grieved for the women and men who gave their lives so that we might enjoy our freedoms and civil rights. I grieved that a small majority of voters chose an unserious, immoral, accused rapist as our president in the recent election when given the chance of electing a serious, moral, intelligent leader to represent our country. I grieved that those hard-earned freedoms and civil rights are in peril.
