I was like a lot of you. It’s almost as if Colorado said, “Merry Christmas, Charles!” Herr Trump, deleted from the Colorado presidential ballot!
Before Colorado’s Supreme Court so unexpectedly gifted me, my favorite Christmas present had always been one I received from my sister when I was about ten or so.
I still remember it fondly nearly sixty years later. It was a tub of Tootsie Rolls. The tub was the approximate size of Mexico. I was in heaven. My sister knew how much I loved gnawing on the things. Even at that early age, she was honing a rare skill: giving incredibly considerate gifts that reflect the person she gives them to.
