Have a Heart. No, Really. Do Have One.

Here are the hearts I embroidered and sent to the people who open the mail. We get everyone employed by helping everyone, not by chasing them away, creating an "us" and "them mentality.

Dear Person Who Opens the Mail for Senator Bennet,

The embroidered heart enclosed is for you. I had some time during the Super Bowl to make it. It might be a good rug for a dollhouse, or something.

Mmm-mmm-mm.

What are we going to do?

Crazy people in the White House.

Gonna bring back all those jobs that left.

My parents lived all their lives in Monte Vista, Colorado.

Down south, in the San Luis Valley.

Ever heard of it?

They had a Sears store. Good money in a small town.

Closed up in 1991. Wal-Mart killed it.

I even wrote about it for the paper.

Google “Sausages, Saddles, and Bees.”

It was in the Denver Post.

Internet would have killed the business if Wal-Mart hadn’t.

They opened a health food store after that.

Barely broke even.

They basically made no money after age 55.

Rural areas are a tough place to be.

Yeah, Trump and the Republicans,

Gonna bring back those jobs.

What—Dial back Wal Mart? The Internet? Those robots that do what people used to do?

You know they’re not going to come back.

Ok, here’s what I’d like to tell Mr Bennet:

Keep thinking about education.

That’s what helps.

Flexibility, too. If only we could teach that.

I’m behind you.

Let me know what I can do.
