As for my politics, yeah I pretty much spilled the beans in my book. But I actually used to be fairly liberal until I hit my 50's. I don't know if I just became more aware of politics at that age or if there were events at that time that moved me in that direction. I think the illegal immigration issue was a prime motivator. It really pissed me off to see people carrying Mexican flags down the streets of Denver demanding freebies and disrespecting our wonderful country. We let them come into our country to enjoy the benefits of our way of life and they refused to learn our language, refused to assimilate into our culture and their demands were outrageous in my opinion. And our many immigrant friends who went thru the years-long and expensive process of entering our country legally were mortified that these people were (and are) being allowed to bypass the legal process. I guess you could say I became "woke", tho not according to the current definition of that term.
