Nichola Gutgold Writes: “Klob-mentum” and the Pronouns To Help
Nichola Gutgold writes: Elizabeth Warren during the CNN and Des Moines Register Democratic Debate in Iowa, Jan. 14, 2020: “I will do what a president can do all by herself on the very first day.” Amy Klobuchar in her closing statement at the same debate: “...if you want to do something about racial justice and immigration reform and climate change and gun safety, we need a candidate who is actually going to bring people with her.” With “her.” By “herself.” In a year of pronounced pronouns, the pronouns referring to a woman president are especially notable. more »
First Flight: Wheels left the ground, that first gentle lift into the air, and a magic I didn't understand moved us skyward"
Margaret Cullison writes: I looked down at the farms below us, my eyes tracking the highway that led into town. Then I saw the swimming pool, the grade school, and finally our house.

Origins and Development, The Senate's Impeachment Role
"The concept of impeachment originated in England and was adopted by many of the American colonial governments and state constitutions. As adopted by the framers, this congressional power is a fundamental component of the constitutional system of 'checks and balances.' Through the impeachment process, Congress charges and then tries an official of the federal government for 'Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.' The definition of 'high Crimes and Misdemeanors' was not specified in the Constitution and has long been subject to debate."
