Paul Gaugin sailed to French Polynesia in search of an elusive paradise. And died of frustration. That was his Vietnam. Andre de Sarto, the faultless painter, turned thief and lived a tormented life. Because he married the wrong woman. It was his Vietnam. Because he wanted to write the best Scottish poems, Robert Burns trekked away his life in search of Scottish folklores. A certain Vietnam. Consider these public citizens: Czar Nicholas of Russia loved power so much. That led to his death and that of his family. Another Vietnam. Napoleon Bonaparte's ambition did him in, in Waterloo. It was his Vietnam dance. J.F. Kennedy's Cuban dream failed at the Bay of Pigs. Some Vietnam. And then enter Richard Nixon. He went to the real Vietnam and fought an endless war. His Secretary of Sate, Henry Kissinger, did a stylish exit and got away with a Noble Peace Prize. Yet, Nixon had his Vietnam.

The Republicans keep talking about a “mandate.” There are many very important issues that need to be addressed in Indiana: Property taxes are out of control (Mine have increased over 60% in the last year here in Allen County), we spend OVER $11,000 per student per year on a public school system that produces students who on average score 24 points BELOW the national average on the SAT test,… 3.
