Since the founding of the United States, voting has been of paramount importance to her citizens. Voting has been the true American act. Initially voting was reserved for certain citizens, people of property or of certain birth, nationality, or race. However over time voting has been accorded a privilege to everyone-men and women-of age. No longer was it restricted to those who could pay for the privilege or to Caucasians. Now everyone could vote.Unfortunately, in 2022 not everyone believes in universal suffrage. Some Americans believe there are those among us who do not deserve to vote. Regularly they do everything they can to restrict voting to people who act like them, who think like them, and who look like them. They have fulminated against universal suffrage, trying to restrict it to themselves only. Often they proclaim fraud and even challenge certified election results, refusing to accept the will of the voters. In my opinion this is egregiously wrong.It is the responsibility of every thinking American to cast his or her vote, to express an opinion which may go against the majority but which nevertheless deserves to be articulated. Both the freedom to vote and the right to vote matter!

    This book represents an attempt to re-visit my home town-La Crosse, Kansas-from a foreign perspective, that of another, a friend and classmate. Of course most of this is imagined as it is impossible to truly know another’s thoughts and true feelings. While much of it is introspective imaginings, however, the intention is affection and love.

    In only two plays-The Comedy of Errors and The Tempest--does Shakespeare observe the unities of time, action, and place. While these apparent constraints seem to restrict the playwright, they also demonstrate an artistry that transcends the apparent restrictions, especially in The Tempest. The added themes of justice satisfied and of young love realized make for a satisfying ...

  • The Complete Taming of the Shrew
    Donald J. Richardson
    To a contemporary feminist, The Taming of the Shrew is surely anathema. A strong woman is shown to be easily manipulated and ends up subjugated by a somewhat insensitive and boorish man. Yet, despite the real objections, the play has been popular for centuries in itself, in adaptations (Tamed and How, or The Push), and a wildly popular musical (Kiss Me, Kate). Thus, one may be ...
