Maybe Jack would share with us some of his lifetime experience and
indicate just why that context entirely disqualifies Sen. Dole from
making any mere utterance denouncing violence on television. This is
an indication that people would cndemn any speech by that individual,
and perhaps, oppose any of his ideas, including those that are of
urgent significance and great benefit to humanity.
What could Dole have done, which remains entirely without explicit
description and is beyond my own understanding, which warrants such a
position?
