America's Grandmother - Barbara Bush, " the Enforcer "

 It's time we elect, appoint, or draft a National Grandmother. Someone who can uphold the office of old time Grandmother standards now fast slipping away from the American scene.
      "Bar" as she is known around Kennebunkport has just turned 90 and declared her intention to wander the beachfront on her walker and "shut-up" about politics and world events.
      It is our job to draft her into National Service. At 90, the wealth of experience she possesses plus her blunt delivery is of overwhelming value to the nation, the public at large, and to the current administration in office.
      I propose that Barbara Bush emulate the late FDR and conduct "Fireside Chats" on radio once a week from her home. In that, she can give us the benefit of her wide range of experience, advice of 90 years background of life in politics, family, and civic duty.
     Our nation needs to pay more attention to our seniors, not less. Bar's insistence on now remaining silent at 90, is, in my opinion the exact wrong thing to do. We need to hear from her about EVERYTHING that's on her mind, and we need to hear now.
