A moment of silence

I'm sad to see that Obama's grandmother passed away. This is a real hard time on him and his family.

The election pales in comparison to what is going on in his life now. I would ask that everyone take the high road and show respect for him... and back off on personal attacks. I will do so.

You are very thoughtful surefire. I was thinking that in all of this election hype, he would have to put off grieving for his beloved Grandmother and that is sad.

I will join in the moment too.
