Greetings, As you may have known (and as these Musings confirm) there is an inner nerd inhabiting vast swathes of my mind. Some might say the nerd isn’t that hidden, but, whatever… MY FIRST ELECTION When I was the ripe old age of 12, I established my earliest memories of elections. I loved following them, for the horse race, for the policy, for being a witness to history, for the excitement. I devoured Teddy White’s “Making of the President” (and its sequels). I read history of elections and presidents voraciously. Among my favorite board games was “Mr. President,” which I played with my cousin Chris so often that the cards began to fray.
