Commentary.
Several times over the past few weeks I’ve been approached by a friendly stranger in the parking lot of a grocery store, restaurant, or strip mall. In early April, my sister and I were approached in the garden of a winery in Hermann, Missouri. The individuals, all of whom were carrying clipboards, were of various ethnicities, ages and both genders. They wanted to know if I would comment on an issue and sign my name in support or opposition.
