Kenneth M. O’Brien
I’ve always been fond of a quote from Adlai Stevenson that goes, “Eggheads of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your yokes.” (Extra credit for those who can explain the irony).
No doubt about it, I’ve always been a nerd, geek, wonk – take your pick.
But I like to think that I’ve always had an open mind.
While I’m known as one of, perhaps, three Liberals living in Southbridge, I’ve always welcomed informed points of view that varied from my own.
I remember that way back in high school one of my favorite TV programs was Firing Line, moderated by William F. Buckley, Jr.
It is a wonderful example of what is missing from conventional television programs that purport to provide serious political analysis.
