Bike Writer, I agree with you. I fear that now, we are so divided that (some) would clap or cheer if our president was shot. I felt embarrassed when I heard that people at the NASCAR race booed the first lady and the v.p.'s wife when they were there supporting military families. This hit home, since I'm a military mom; those booers don't represent me. I would never boo any president, no matter how much I disagreed with his or her politics. You have to respect the office.
