LINDEN'S FAVORITE MINORITY GROUP
Actually, it is a minority group within a minority group: Black conservatives. Brave souls indeed.
When you consider that blacks at the presidential level almost never provide less than 85% and often as high as 95% of their votes to the democrat candidate, it is easy to understand the problems faced by our favored minority group.
There is more than one definition applied to being politically conservative: Linden’s partial definition includes traditional values, limited government, low taxes and strong national defense. Surely no thinking person would tie the democrat party to this list.
The lessening importance of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and those of that ilk coupled with the increasing respect for those such as Ward Connerly, Star Parker, Jesse Lee Peterson, Thomas Sowell, Shelby Steele, Clarence Thomas, J. C. Watts and Walter Williams provides Linden with hope for the future.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
Julie was in the area on business today and we had a long and enjoyable breakfast meeting. Far and away the high point of my day!

GIFT GIVING?
Any of Linden’s six books or his first CD could be what you are looking for: They are inexpensive and not everybody has one.
The CD “Songs A Poor Old Police Department Retiree Might Write While Waiting For His Meager Pension Check” features Linden’s original compositions. The book subject matter ranges from political through poetry, baseball, prayer, cryptograms and Linden’s pilgrimage in Spain at age 75.
