The Old Guy Knows



Dick Van Dyke has made news as on the day before Election Day, the Daily Mail noted

The 98-year-old acting icon — who recently sparked concerns after he was forced to cancel his first appearance outside of Los Angeles in months — addressed the camera in a stark black-and-white clip shared on his Instagram page....

Although his speech did not mention either Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Donald Trump by name, the stage and screen star made it clear that he was supporting Harris by tagging her personal account, the Harris campaign's account, and the official account of the vice president.



I don't like Kamala Harris for varied reasons. These include, but are not limited to, a 180 degree swing on criminal justice.as an Attorney General who defied the US Supreme Court on releasing from prison non-violent criminals to a cheerleader for the black lives matter movement. Her extreme approach to criminal justice brings to mind an explanation by the late nutritionist, Carlton Fredericks. If you have one foot in a bucket of ice water and the other in a bucket of hot coals, you're experiencing an average temperature. But it's not good.

So I appreciate support for President of the Vice President of the USA by an individual who resists the temptation to make the latter out to be anything beyond what she is. She is a vessel- beginning a few months ago, the only vessel available- to keep Donald Trump from re-occupying the White House.

Van Dyke recognizes that Kamala Harris is not Donald Trump, and that must be all we need. We have been presented with a near- Hobson's Choice and the man with fascist character, rhetoric, and views is no choice at all.
