  • CubsCongratulations to the manager, coaches, players, and fans of the Chicago Cubs. A World Series victory has been a long time coming for them (1908). My wife, Katherine, who is from Illinois and who has watched games in Wrigley Field, is happy. Indeed, she watched several hours of the victory parade this morning and afternoon while I rode my bike. What I found interesting is that each team—the Cubs and the Cleveland Indians—scored 27 runs in the series.

  • To the Editor:

    It’s time for Democrats to recognize that their characterization of Donald Trump’s supporters as stupid, ignorant and even deplorable is damaging their chances of gaining ground with working-class voters.

    The Democratic Party used to be the party of the working class. When I was a child, my mother, a proud Democrat, told me that Democrats stick up for “the little guy.”

    Because Democrats are viewed as having given up on caring about people from rural areas, many traditionally blue areas of the country are turning red. Although I find him reprehensible, Donald Trump has at least acted as if he cares about what happens to people in areas like Appalachia, the Midwest and the Deep South.

    Working-class folks believe that Donald Trump is their voice. Whether he wins or loses, Democrats need to take a hard look at the fact that a Manhattan-based billionaire is beating them in the race for blue-collar America.
