I started life Roman Catholic in the “old days”, so Latin was one of my earliest memories. I loved learning it in high school. An interest in ancient history came with all of that. As a Navy brat, I haunted base and hometown libraries wherever my Dad was stationed.

You are right about optics over content. As a competitive debater in high school and college, I learned the importance of both. Now, it’s all about perception and the show. Substance seems lost on a country whose people appear to have mass attention deficit disorder.
