Franklin Delano Roosevelt told us that “human kindness has never weakened the stamina or softened the fiber of a free people. A nation does not have to be cruel in order to be tough.” Given the tone and content of political rhetoric today, more than ever, we must have the strength and courage to reject PROPHETS OF SELFISHNESS, PURVEYORS OF HATRED, PREACHERS OF FEAR who tell us that our greatest strength is a weakness.
