Soaring DramaCongratulations to our new President-Elect
Barack Obama and our new Vice President-Elect
Joe Biden.
Now that they have proven victorious in being elected to the
White House, I'd like to offer timely and appropriate words offered by its very first occupant,
President John Adams, founding father and second president of the United States:
"I pray Heaven to bestow the best blessings on this house and all that shall hereafter inhabit. May none but honest and wise men ever rule under this roof."
- John Adams in letter to his wife Abigail Adams
November 2, 1800
I join in wishing our leaders godspeed and wisdom.
This is Steve On Broadway (SOB).

Vote!As a staunch and vigorous defender of the
Freedom of Speech, I'm urging all Steve On Broadway (SOB) readers in the United States to let your voice be heard today.
Given my love for live theatre, I realize that there would be no freedom of expression for this or any type of art form were it not for the
United States Constitution.
We must not take it or our other freedoms for granted. Please vote today!

Political Theatre, Part IIFolks, as I said last week, I haven't forgotten about you or Steve On Broadway or live theatre.
But I offer a reminder that aside from theatre and traveling, my other great passion in life is politics. So just as I got caught up in last week's Democratic National Convention, please forgive me for watching the drama unfold at this week's Republican National Convention.
Regardless of which party has the floor, I believe it's our responsibility as Americans to listen in to both political conventions to know what each candidate for the highest office -- along with all their surrogates -- is saying.
Hopefully, you're every bit as interested in the future direction of our nation and are tuning in to both.

Regardless of which party has the floor, I believe it's our responsibility as Americans to listen in to both political conventions to know what each candidate for the highest office -- along with all their surrogates -- is saying. So chances are, as I watch this real-life drama continue, my posts may be sparse right through next week Thursday.
Hopefully, you're every bit as interested in the future direction of our nation.
