Average Joe Buckeye Blitz cont. <\/strong><\/em> We did a whistle-stop at Court House Plaza in downtown Dayton today. Dayton’s NBC News <\/em>was there. The reporter asked our daughter Sarah, 9, what she thought about her Dad running for president. Sarah said: “I like his message.” The reporter smiled and asked Sarah to talk about one of the “messages” she most liked (I’m sure expecting a cute, well, nine-year-old response.) Sarah said: “I like his stance against abortion. My Dad has a bumper sticker that says ‘He’s a child, not a choice…’ <\/strong>And I think that’s good.” Bravo Sarah!… This evening I was asked to participate in a round table discussion at Xavier University in Cincinnati on: “The Young Catholic Vote.” The topic of nuclear weapons came up.
