Everyone’s invited to the seventh annual Free Community Thanksgiving Feast by Kim demory egeagle@goldfieldaccess.net What are you doing for Thanksgiving next week? Don’t feel like cooking? Don’t have any special plans? Wish there was somewhere you could go for a delicious meal and be surrounded by friends, neighbors, and new people to meet? There is and it’s right here in Eagle Grove. Even better, it’s completely free for everyone regardless of age, income, or ability. It’s a Thanksgiving meal that truly provides you with something to be thankful for. This will be the seventh yearin-a-row that Bert Aukland, with the help of family and friends, has hosted a community Thanksgiving Feast in Eagle Grove. To her delight, it only keeps getting bigger and better. More people are coming to eat. More people are volunteering to help, and more meals are being delivered - all for free. For Aukland, it all began with a desire to bring people together on the holiday - to give people a place to go and something to do. It doesn’t matter the reason they come, only that they do, and when they do, that is what Aukland and her growing group of volunteers who prepare the meal are thankful for. Aukland said that regardless of a person’s income or age, she hopes they will join them at this year’s community event on Thursday Nov. 24. It’s purpose is to have a place for people to go who might not otherwise be able to afford the full Thanksgiving meal, or who might be home alone, who might just not want
to cook, or even those just looking for a place to get out and spend the day visiting with people they might not otherwise get to see too often. Whatever your reason, it’s a good reason. Thanksgiving is a time to be grateful for all we have - why not be grateful together. There is no charge for the dinner, however some have wanted to make a free-will contribution in year’s past. Aukland has graciously accepted them but only to put that money back into the account to buy food for the next year’s feast. She stresses, though, that money is most definitely not a requirement. The meal is intended to be free for everyone. If you would like, Aukland said you could also bring one of your favorite salads to share at the feast, but again, this is not required. The question is, have you and/ or your loved ones attended this free event yet? If not, why not? This year’s Annual Community Thanksgiving Feast will be held at Memorial Hall from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m. Take-out and delivery are also available, free of charge. Aukland encourages those in need of a delivered meal to please not hesitate to call. She’s had many people sign up to make deliveries, so now, all they need are people wanting a hot turkey with all the fixings delivered right to their door. Aukland commented that this meal isn’t about being a free handout, it’s about offering a place to come together to enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving meal while in the company of others. It’s intended for
the elderly who maybe don’t have any family coming home to celebrate Thanksgiving. It’s meant for the single parent who would rather enjoy the meal than cook it herself/ himself. It’s aimed at those who are new to town and would like to meet more people. If you live alone, now you don’t have to eat alone. Aukland is especially hoping that families who are facing hard times will come with their children. “We were just swamped last year... and we loved it,” said Aukland. Already planning a meal at your house? That’s great, but that doesn’t mean you can’t join them at Memorial Hall for a slice of pie and a cup of coffee. Come out and visit with those who live in your community. This whole event is made possible thanks to the many wonderful family and friends who volunteer to help Aukland prepare and serve the meal, along with those who donate towards the purchase of the food. If you would like to donate your time, she never turns away an offer. Simply show up in the morning on Nov. 24…or you can stick around after and help clean up. “I have great helpers,” Aukland said. “There are a bunch of nice people in this town and you don’t have to go very far to find them.” “God willing, I’ll do it every year until I can’t,” Aukland concluded. To schedule a delivery (one meal per person per household, please), call Aukland at 515-3680766 or 515-825-3322. Please leave a message if no one answers.
RBMS students showing their gratitude If you drove down Broadway in Eagle Grove in the past week, you’ve likely been in awe of the view. Robert Blue Middle School seventh and eighth graders spent part of Veterans Day, Nov. 11, going out into the community to show their support of all those who serve...veterans as well as police officers, including the memory of fallen Sergeant Anthony Beminio and Officer Justin Martin. Blake Morgan (left) and Brady Beck (right) were part of the group who spent an hour in the chilly weather tying blue ribbons around each and every tree along Broadway as a reminder.

In this week’s Eagle Military men and women, along with family members, filled Robert Blue Middle School auditorium on Friday, Nov. 11, for the Eagle Grove High School Veterans Day Program. Photo by Kim Demory by Kim demory egeagle@goldfieldaccess.net More than 60 veterans and/ or their family members gathered at the Robert Blue Middle School auditorium for a Eagle Grove High School sponsored Veterans Day Program on Friday, Nov. 11. It was a celebration to honor those who have risen their hands and sworn to protect and serve this great nation. Some did so in times of war. Others did so in times of peace. Still others are currently serving to protect our freedoms. There are approximatley 23.2 million veterans in the United States. Among them, Mark Thompson, a 1974 EGHS graduate, and the guest speaker for the day’s event. “When I was apprached about speaking (at the Veterans Day program), I jumped at the chance,” Thompson told the crowd. “As the youngest of three, I thought it was my duty to keep up with my brothers.” But it was in the Eagle Grove school classroom where Thompson

Prestage Foods of Iowa getting to work in Wright County by Kim demory egeagle@goldfieldaccess.net The plant isn’t even open, nor has construction even begun, but Prestage Foods of Iowa has already been busy in Wright County. “We’ve got two things brewing right now,” said Chief Operating Officer of Prestage Foods of Iowa Jere Null. The first is a Subcontractor and Vendor Outreach Fair which will be held Tuesday, Dec. 13, 2016 in the Bioscience and Health Science Building at Iowa Central Community College in Fort Dodge. It will take place from 8:30 a.m. - noon, and all potential subcontractors and vendors wishing to bid for construction elements, supply systems, or materials for the new project south of Eagle Grove are encouraged to attend. “Every day we have local contractors coming in to ask how they can bid for the job,” said Null. By holding the Outreach Fair, he feels this is a way that local and national contractors can come together to accomplish the job - realizing that the scope of the project is most likely too large for a local contractor with only a smaller number of employees, but at the same time, realizing that it’s top priority to hire local. “It’s an event where local smaller

groups and big national groups can come together to talk sub contracting. “It can help pair (small contractors) with national companies that have the insurance, etc. to cover largescale jobs like Prestage,” Null said. “Prestage Foods’ investment in Iowa includes the desire to involve as many Iowa contractors, subcontractors, and vendors as possible.” The Outreach Fair will also provide interested contractors the opportunity to get information about certifications that will be required in order to submit proposals for the project. “We’re planning to build the plant in roughly 20 months...that will be a huge effort,” Null said. “We’ll likely have 1,500 contractors working at once during our peak.” As plans get underway for the construction of the building, community plans are also being organized. Null is happy to announce that a Citizens Advisory Panel has been formed. “We have a broad mix of different types of people,” he said. They include educators, business people, farmers, health care workers, and county social workers. County commissioners and Eagle Grove Mayor Sandy McGrath are also involved. --------------------------------------Prestage cont. on Page 2

Prestage “Our mission is that they become a liaison between Prestage and the community. We hope that they become our ambassadors,” Null said. One of the first topics of discussion, according to Null, will be housing. As stated earlier, at the height of construction, there will be as many as 1,500 contractors coming. There is a need not only for temporary housing, but also permanent housing as well as multi-family housing units. Where will these people live? How will we meet demand? How do we prepare? “To us, this is where the panel can be a huge help,” said Null. “We’re on the front-end of a nice title wave here,” said Null, indicating that this is a start of growth for Eagle Grove, Wright County, and surrounding communities. This growth will not only come from new people coming into Wright County, but people returning home to their roots again. Null said that Prestage Foods of Iowa has already
Continued from Page 1 received numerous calls from locals who have moved away for jobs but would love to come back home and work. Prestage Foods of Iowa’s one-shift plant will employ up to 1,000 Iowans within the first year of operation. With a capital investment of more than $240 million, the new facility will be approximately 600,000 square feet and offer state-of-the-art technologies. The project is scheduled to break ground in the spring of 2017, and be operational by the fall of 2018. The Career Academy of North Central Iowa located in Eagle Grove is happy to be a part of helping Prestage Foods of Iowa prepare employees for their jobs. The two entities have met and talked about training programs that could be offered on the Eagle Grove campus to address the needs of the students for these jobs.

County working with FEMA to mitigate flood damage Kacey Ginn
Wright County Monitor, editor
wrightcomonitor@gmail.com
After the September flood stopped harvest in its tracks, things eventually got back to normal in Wright County. The last of the corn is being brought in, but some of the most damaged roads have only recently been fixed, and problems like bank sluffing and tile blowouts have affected field drainage. At the end of October, FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency) declared several Iowa counties, including Wright, disaster areas due to flooding. At Monday’s supervisors meeting, the supervisors and Drainage Clerk Deb Lukes meet with Phil Jacobs with JJG Grant Management to discuss how the county will proceed with identifying areas for assistance with disaster funding. So far, the county has identified 17 sites for repair, which should get
underway in the spring. Lukes will be in charge of communicating with landowners to review affected areas. The county will have 18 months to complete repairs after flood-related damages are identified. Apart from the canvass of votes, the only other item of business was to appoint Kent Rutherford to the Economic Development board to replace Bob Malloy. Rutherford has served on the Economic Development loan review board for several years. The supervisors were quite comfortable with the replacement. “I’m sure Kent will fill his shoes perfectly,” said Supervisor Rick Rasmussen. The supervisors approved Rutherford’s appointment; his term starts January 1, 2017. The scheduled review of the Parent Connection program’s conflict of interest policy and new standards was postponed until next week.
School Board hears about TLC program Also approve Superintendent goals By les houser wrightcosports@gmail.com
At this past Monday’s meeting of the Eagle Grove Board of Education, directors heard a presentation from Kyle Teeselink and Karissa Everson on the Teachers Leadership & Compensation (TLC) program for the district. They are the full-time leaders of the program. This program for Iowa schools came as part of the education reform package approved at the 2013 session of the Iowa Legislature. The four-year process will bring TLC to all 338 Iowa school districts, with the first 33 implementing the system for the 2014-15 school year. This is the first year for the program here. The State is providing $150 million per year for implementation. According to them, the overriding philosophy of the program is that improving student learning requires improving the instruction students receive on a daily basis. Statewide goals include such things as attracting promising new teachers and retaining effective teachers and improving student achievement by strengthening instruction among others. Teacher Leaders (or Coaches as their referred to) include: Alana Alt and Jennifer Lenane (elementary); Sarah Tesselink and Beth Stephas (middle school) and Lindsay Haugland and Marta Paukert (high school). Their duties are to set learning targets, plan instruction, create assessments, sort student work to see who needs more help and differentiate instruction based on data. They also support the team of model teachers, with anywhere from five to seven of those in each building. Their main purpose is to provide support to the other teachers in the building. “TLC is studentcentered coaching, which creates a culture that values students first, continuous learning, collaboration and positive relationships,” said Everson. “It’s been very positive, and the program is going well,” added Teeselink. Superintendent Jess Toliver, along with building principals Scott Jeske and Jeff Siebersma, were not present for the meeting. During communications and celebrations, Elementary Principal Joe Erickson reported on PBIS held on Halloween. They did a community/school cleanup day. “It was pretty amazing how much they picked up,” said Erickson. A safety drill was held recently, with students and staff practicing for scenarios that might occur. He was
also impressed with the classroom instruction that was taking place during conference week. He concluded by inviting board members to this Friday’s ‘Feast’ event, and expressed appreciation to Security Savings Bank for again donating the turkeys. RBMS principal Jeske provided a written report, which started with their first quarter assembly which handed out awards for attendance, GPA and behavior referrals. “We have a very large number of kids doing the right things,” said Jeske. Jeske, along with Beth Stephas, presented at the Iowa Guidance Counselors Convention on creating a safe, positive culture in their building. “We shared many of the initiatives we have used,” said Jeske. He also stated he is very pleased with the TLC program. “I can’t say enough good things about the job Karissa is doing in meeting the needs of our building,” said Jeske. The list of Superintendent Goals for this school year was reviewed and improved. These are as follows: (Finance) Plan facilities based on financial resources; Base staff on projected numbers in line with finances; Evaluate programs and numbers of coaches based on participation numbers; (Education) Monitor and communicate with the Board on the Career Academy; Communicate with the Board about statewide testing and progress as our population changes; (Leadership) Demonstrate leadership through planning process as we prepare for growth associated with Prestage project. In other action the Board: -approved the SBRC requests for modified supplemental amounts for increasing enrollment, open enrollment out and ELL beyond five years. The total of all is $154,354.74; -approved the Affirmative Action Plan; -approved a resignation/contract termination from Mercedes Thul as a teacher associate and a contract termination for Jackie Wolff as a cook’s helper; -approved the resignation of Mary Ann Smith as girls golf coach; -approved contracts for Mackenzie Sisson as boys basketball coach and Lori Olmstead as high school drama director; -approved the early graduation request of Nicolas Duarte; -approved open enrollment requests for a student from Humboldt and a student from C-G-D.

Veterans were asked to sign in according to their branch of military. Photo by Kim Demory In July of 1974, he reported to the U.S. Air Force. In 1976, he was discharged because he was able to maintain qualifying grades. He told his audience, specifically targeting the high school students, that he was disappointed in his lack to obtain his goal. But he remembers how his mom told he “I know you did your best, but the most important thing is that you kept your honor.” That’s when Thompson admits he made the bold decision to join the Marien Corp. His mother “dreaded sending another son into the military,” and convinced him to first get a Bachelor’s Degree. After he did, though, he joined the Marines. “We often don’t know we’re making an impact on someone,” Thompson said of how his mother did on him. “The decisions you make now have a huge impact on your life...failure is only failure if you quite.” No matter what path the veterans in attendance on Friday took during their military career, Thompson noted how they all had one thing in commong... We love this nation,” he said. Thompson’s 20+ years in the Marine Corps wasn’t easy. He put himself in harms way, and others put themselves in danger to protect him, as well. He nearly lost his life to hypothermia in Norway had another comrad not given up his own thermal sleeping bag to bring Thompson’s body temperature back to normal. “Why did I spend so long in the Marine Corps? Because I believed in what I was doing, and even more, the Marines I was doing it with,” Thompson said. He added that in life it’s easy to take things for granted - everyday basic things - but the military helps you see those who are much less fortunate. He recalled carrying an elderly, frail woman to an aircraft during a Cuban operation and how much she was willing to sacrifice for freedom. Years later, he was also able to meet a young man whose life he had saved on a
mission. That is why he did what he did for so long. The final thought Thompson left the audience with was simple, but so important. “Respect the flag,” he told them. “We must continue to strive to make our Nation better by the words and the actions we use...I stand here today, knowing that I am one of the most blessed people in the world for having grown up here.” Thompson’s biography After graduating from Buena Vista University in 1977, that same year, he was appointed a 2nd Lieutenant in the Marine Corps. For 27 years, Thompson led infantry and reconnaissance Marines ashore and at sea. In 1996, he joined the Department of State’s counterterrorism office. In 1998, he transitioned into the civil service. He was involved in and led numerous crisis response missions including the 1998 East Africa Embassy Bombings, the 2000 attack on the USS Cole in Yemen, hostage recovery efforts in Ecuador, the Philippines, Gaza Strip, Nigeria and Iraq. He led Department of State efforts in recovering indicted terrorists from overseas locations as well as the extraction of President Aristide from Haiti. Thompson’s team also coordinated sensitive operations worldwide on behalf of the Department of State and U.S. Ambassadors. In 1998, he was promoted to the Senior Executive Service. He is also a graduate of the Air Force Survival Evasion, Resistance and Escape Course (SERE), Army Airborne Course, Navy SCUBA course, U.S. Marine Aerial Observer Course and various military academic institutions. Thompson is now retired. He and his wife, Jacki, live outside of Belmond. They are blessed with two daughters, Nora with husband Brandon of Clarion, and Alice with husband James of Leominster, Massachusetts, along with six grandchildren.

RBMS shows their gratitude by Kim demory egeagle@goldfieldaccess.net Many people throughout the nation paid special tribute to our veterans on Friday, Nov. 11. Since Eagle Grove High School students were in charge of the Veterans Day program at school this year, the seventh and eighth graders at Robert Blue Middle School decided to show their respects to another deserving group of those who serve - police officers. After a morning awards assembly, the two grades headed out with their teachers to thank a local police officer. Instead of it being a one-on-one contact with the officers, they decided to do things that would have more of a
community-wide impact. The most noticeable of these was undoubtedly tying giant blue ribbons around every tree along Broadway. Many people commented how stunning it was and how it took their breath away for a moment, making them stop to think and appreciate our men and women in blue who risk their lives every day to keep our communities safe. Two groups of students, one at Ampride and one at Casey’s, spent their service hour tying blue ribbons onto willing patrons at the gas station to not only pay tribute to our local officers, but also to Sergeant Tony Beminio who went to Eagle Grove schools for a time, and was fatally injured two weeks ago.
Still other students spent time inside the classroom, decorating cards and writing words of gratitude for keeping them and their families safe. While Veterans Day is typically a day to remember those who have served our country in times of war and/or peace, the middle school staff wanted to go one step further and let those who protect and serve, although not through the military, just how much they are appreciated as well for their sacrifices. May this be an inspiration to us all to not only recognize the unsung heros throughout this nation who protect and serve the people in a variety of ways one day a year - but every day in every way.

57th Annual Eagle Grove Craft Show this Saturday Quarter Up auction Saturday night By Kim Demory egeagle@goldfieldaccess.net
Looking for something to do this Saturday? Why not start (or for some of you over-achievers, finish) your holiday shopping right here in Eagle Grove at the 57th Annual Holiday Craft Fair? On Saturday, Nov. 19, from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m., there will be a lot of vendors with a variety of items to sell inside the Robert Blue Middle School multi-purpose room. There’s sure to be gifts for everyone on your list ranging from clothing, to wood crafts, to painted items, and unique one-ofa-kind creations. There will also be plenty of goodies to eat...whether you take them home for yourself or buy them as a gift for someone else. This will be the second year the event has been held at the middle school. “We moved the event (last year to RBMS) for several reasons; first, we felt we would have more space at the middle school and a better flow so that guests wouldn’t miss any of our vendors,” said Chamber Director Lisa Knigge. “We also felt that RBMS was more handicap accessible, and
that there was more parking.” To put the finishing touches on your Christmas gift-buying list, be sure to check out the many wonderful retail stores in Eagle Grove as well. Not only do they have some fabulous gifts, but they offer some great deals that day as well, not to mention the small town friendly atmosphere you won’t find at a chain store. Most likely, they probably even know the person you’re shopping for so could offer some suggestions as well. One more thing, while you’re at the craft show, don’t forget to pick up your Chamber stamp card. Fill in the blanks with markings from participating downtown stores, and you can enter to win Eagle Grove Chamber Bucks. Wouldn’t that be a big help to the holiday budget?! After a fun day of shopping, why not finish off the night at the 3rd Annual Golden Stars Drill Team Quarter Up Auction. Limited tickets are still available by contacting a drill team member or Coach Ann Sampson. It’s an evening of food, fun, laughs, and some great prizes to win. It begins at 6 p.m. at Memorial Hall.

The Amish in Wright County
Submitted by mary tesdahl he Amish have a history in Wright County. In 1892, three Amish families each purchased an eighty acre farm near the center of Dayton Township. In 1893, six additional families settled nearby. In 1894 and in the years that followed, the Amish farmers in Dayton laid down tile drains, constructed large drainage ditches and helped the county build a large open county ditch in the central part of the township. During the time when the Amish Colony flourished at its height between 1895 and 1898, it has been estimated that there were over a hundred Amish people in the colony. Other farmers in the area found the Amish agreeable and kindly and willing to cooperate with their neighbors. They held their first religious services in the township in the Gillett School. As new order Amish, they built churches instead of taking turns hosting church in their homes and in 1898, they built a church and a short time later established a small cemetery. They did try to keep a teacher of their own faith in charge of the children who went to Dayton Center’s country school and most who finished eighth grade were permitted by their parents to enroll in high school in Clarion. The Amish sold their grain chiefly to the elevators in Eagle Grove or Clarion, and the Amish housewives peddled butter and cheese from home to home in the two towns. A reminder of an old order Amish Colony is the style of barns they built. They were noted for their simple lines and were characterized by a fore-chute on the south side of the building. The fore-chute was porch-like. It prevented snow from piling up in large drifts against the door. Sometimes it was used by a farmer when he was hitching horses to a buggy or wagon in the winter. In stormy weather, an Amish family always drove under the fore-chute after church to let the women step out of the buggy. The Amish painted their houses white but as a rule, their barns and other out buildings were red. Unfortunately, the years that the Amish came to Wright County were a time of poor prices and the Amish and all farmers had trouble making ends meet so some families left shortly after the turn of the century. The Amish community lost its minister and families realized it would be difficult to maintain their social customs in Wright County so more left for other parts of the country where they joined existing Amish communities in Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Johnson County in Iowa. Their church was dismantled and moved to a small settlement near Wellman, Iowa. Even the bodies from the cemetery were removed to Johnson County. By 1910, all the Amish had moved out of Wright County. The only reminder of the old Amish Colony in Dayton Township was the style of barns they left behind on their farms.
Share food - share hope - share joy
Share Christmas By Kim Demory egeagle@goldfieldaccess.net
Christmas is the season of hope, a season of joy, and a season of anticipation. For some, it can also be a season of sadness - stressed out by financial hardships of how to even pay for a meal on the table, let alone holiday gifts. But you can make the season merry and bright for them by making a donation to the Share Christmas Program. You can purchase food, paper products, gifts, or even donate cash to be used for meat certificates - all gifts that will help someone through the season. An added bonus, you’ll feel good too. The spirit of giving - after all, isn’t that what Christmas is all about?! Volunteers with the Share Christmas Program are estimating $10,000 will be needed to purchase all of the necessary items to go into the food boxes this year. In 2015, Share Christmas served more than 140 families in the Eagle Grove area. Roughly 130 children under the age of 12 were anonymously adopted by our community from the “adoption tree” at the Eagle Grove Memorial
Library. They know the need will be the same, if not greater, this year. So they are hoping generosity will be as good or better than last year as well. The Share Christmas program, coordinated by volunteers of the local Food Pantry, have been helping qualifying families at Christmas time for more than half a century. Their mission, however, can not be successful without your help. If you decide to make a grocery contribution, non-perishable foods, paper products, and hygiene items may be dropped off between the hours of 1 and 3 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Fridays. All donations should be taken to the Food Pantry at 510 S. Jackson Ave before Friday, Dec. 9. Some ideas of items needed for donation include, but are not limited to: facial tissue, toilet paper, shampoo, hand soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, dish soap, etc. Food products that have a long shelf-life may include: Macaroni and cheese, popcorn, Jell-O, oatmeal, canned vegetables, cake mixes, granola bars, canned tuna/chicken, coffee, and peanut butter.
If you are adopting a family or child from the Giving Tree located at the Eagle Grove Memorial Library, those items may also be dropped off at the Food Pantry during the above listed times. Distribution of the Share Christmas boxes will be from 8:30 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 17 at the Service Center. If you or your family would like to volunteer to help, please contact any of the following organizers: Marcella Johnson ~ 448 - 3743 Barb Johnston ~ 448-3291 Lois Barnes ~ 448 - 4667 Marilyn Kroll ~ 448 - 4025 Are you in need of assistance? If you or someone you know could use a little extra help this holiday season, whether it be food, toys, or both, please fill out the form below. You may also pick up an application at any of the following Eagle Grove locations: Upper Des Moines Opportunity, the laundromat, Eagle Grove Memorial Library, or at the Service Center. Forms are due no later than Friday, Dec. 9, 2016.
Sue Nichols, Lori Loux , Marcella Johnson, Barb Johnston, Marilyn Kroll, Blanch Boesteder, and Lois Barnes (pictured front, then back from left) volunteered their time on Monday, Nov. 7 to prepare donation envelopes for the upcoming family Share Christmas program. When you receive yours, please consider giving generously to help families who are in need of food and supplies this holiday season. Photo by Kim Demory

wrong. A few did get it. I think it was Chuck Todd that was realizing that they had totally overlooked what has become known to the political elite as “fly over country.” This is home to the productive engine of America, the rural agriculture areas and the manufacturing centers, both of which have suffered greatly from the policies of taking from the productive and giving to the unproductive. While Clinton was demonstrating the disdain the Insiders, Democrat and Republican, have for the heart of America by referring to them as “deplorables,” Trump was going to the people, listening to them, and connecting with them. The utter disdain the Insiders have for the Outsiders was abundantly evident throughout Tuesday evenings election coverage. Over and over on many channels many of the talking heads stated their belief that Trump voters, or Republicans, or rural people were all uneducated. Very insulting, and totally without any basis outside of the imaginary world they live in. As I said, a few did not present this view, but so many did. What do they mean by uneducated? I think most farmers I know are college educated. And among those that aren’t, I’m pretty sure they are still quite educated. Probably most of them would be quite capable of sitting in a talking head chair bleating out opinions for a few hours, whereas I’m quite sure none of the talking heads are educated enough to do what these farmers do on a daily basis where a working understanding is needed of biology, chemistry, physics, agronomy, economics, mechanics, etc. I’d like to see some of these “educated” folks try to fix their car engines, or design and construct a bridge, or treat a patient in an ambulance or ER, or coordinate a response to a fire, or frankly do anything productive. And, yes, I am college educated, graduating summa cum laude and a member of Mensa, so I do take offense at being called uneducated and by implication ignorant, by the elitists.
Just look at all those uneducated deplorables out in the street rioting over the results of the election. Oh, wait … that isn’t the uneducated deplorable Trump supporters, but the educated, tolerant, caring Clinton supporters showing great maturity and tolerance for opposing views. They are marching, destroying property, and even beating fellow human beings for the high crime of voting for someone other than Clinton. This is ridiculous. What if’s are always speculative, but I sincerely doubt that if Clinton had won you would see Trump supporters acting this way, if for no other reason than that they would need to be at work to support both their families and their dependent welfare families. But more importantly, though very unhappy with the results, they would have accepted the results. You didn’t see this reaction four or eight years ago from the side that lost the election. Says a lot. Speaking of adult-like reactions, or the lack thereof, I see some college professors felt the need to cancel classes or exams so that the students could have time to grieve or whatever. Good grief, what a bunch of immature babies we’re turning out these days! Today being Veteran’s Day, I’m reminded that 70+ years ago young adults were storming beaches on Normandy, Iwo Jima, Tarawa, and other places, and 50 years ago young adults were going through booby-trapped jungles to face the enemy. Today young adults need “safe places” on campus where their feelings won’t be hurt by someone saying something they find offensive, and they are reduced to being unable to take tests due to an election not coming out the way they want. What will they do when they find out the real world doesn’t coddle to their every need. I suppose that is partly the result of being fed a steady diet of indoctrination of victimhood and intolerance being called tolerance. I was glad to see Obama and Trump are both acting like adults so far in the transition. Good for them.

Democrat District 4 State Senate
By Brett Pharo Regardless of who you voted for, we should all be proud of the voter turnout. Both major party candidates received a tremendous number of votes, as did Mr. Johnson of the Libertarian Party. It’s too bad that we don’t get that kind of turnout to vote for candidates rather than against candidates, as I suspect was the case this time. In any case, congratulations are in order for Mr. Trump. Congratulations, and recognition, are also in order for the first female to manage a campaign that won the Presidency. Regardless of who you voted for, you probably recognize that Kellyanne Conway (Trumps campaign manager) did a fantastic job. This is a field that has been totally the domain of men in the past, but Ms. Conway broke through that perceived barrier with class and dominance. Well done! Trump’s win is all the more impressive when you realize what he was up against. He took on the Insiders of the Republican Party, including the powerful Bush political machine, and did so while dealing with a press that was pretty critical of him throughout the primary season. And he won. He then took on the powerful Clinton machine, the Insiders from both major parties, the big money wall streeters, and an openly hostile media in the general election. Rarely, if ever, have the political powers been so stacked against a candidate. And he won. This seems to have been a peaceful revolution against the ruling class. For many, a Trump win came as a totally shocking surprise. For many others, though, it was not. I’ve never been a big fan of Michael Moore, but he was dead on when he predicted Trump would be the next President back in July and then again in October. The Insiders pooh poohed his prediction, but he was right that Trump would carry the rust belt states and the election, and why. Other analysts, such as Jim Rickards, also were predicting a Trump win. Most of the media seemed to be totally flabbergasted as returns came in and just couldn’t understand how they had been so
