Dear Readers,
As of this moment, some folks are being singled out about how to show respect for our country (and implicitly its present administration) by standing during a rendition of our national anthem, which is a very well-known melody.
But it also has words and those words, including the first verse, ask this question:
“O, say, does that star spangled banner yet wave, O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!”
The answer to that question depends on what those of you who vote will do in the next four years.
