…It's too bad that you didn't get a chance to meet the Rogue Robotics team from Farmington, MN who made that cool motorized wheel chair for Rocco Zachow-Rodriguez. They pulled several all-nighters so their chair would be operational for the event. Their Go-Baby-Go project is really taking off and it's exciting to see teens learning and helping all at the the same time….
Was your statement yesterday at the celebration with the Black Knights about granting service academy athletes a waiver to serve their terms of duty after their sports career inspired by my letter? I like to think so…. It was nice of you to give the guys a chance to talk to the crowd. Too bad they didn't have much to say beyond "Go Army."

She ditched the Episcopal church because it was too exclusive and tweeted to "proclaim a more just and expansive vision of God’s love& help other spiritual seekers to realize that they were not alone."…
… According to factbas.se, your speech at the Resch Center was slightly positive. That's a step in the right direction!

Thanks for being your best self yesterday when all of those daughters and sons were at the WH! You said all the right things. … I was thrilled to hear you acknowledge that the press core reports accurately…. Please show that side of yourself more often. You could start today when you give your speech at the NRA convention in Indianapolis…
…What do you think of Joe Biden's candidacy? If the cover of the NYT is any indicator, he might give you a run for your money. Your name appears there 12 times today and his appears 11 times. I would prefer a younger, more progressive Democratic candidate and would be really excited to see a woman running against you. Joe, is the "been there, done that" candidate, don't you think? …
How was your visit with the photographers yesterday? Did you get a chance to chat with Doug Mills, your favorite NYT photographer? Folks say you like him because you are a visual person. I am, too. …Did you see Doug's photo of José María Olazábal's ball skipping over the water at the Master's this year? Reminds me of a Seurat painting.
