The Day Before

 Tomorrow will be an historic inauguration.  The first female vice president.  Women have finally arrived.  It took a long time to get to the front of the line. The oldest first term president. It took him a long time to get to the front of the line. An insurrection in the offing.  A pandemic in progress. 25,000 National Guard Troops in the Capital. Many of them at the Capitol.  I pray that nothing goes wrong.  I pray that everything goes right.

One of the things the framers had right was the need for a peaceful transfer of power.  If we have that, everybody wins.  If we don't, everybody loses. I pray for peace.  I pray that winners and losers can become Americans together.
