Mar 2020

it so delightfully well! It's like we were there all over again.. I can never get enough of that.

From the disappointment of the earlier caucus states and NH to now has been a glorious roller coaster ride.. We knew what it felt like to hang in there and wait for South Carolina.. Bless James Clyburn and Jannie Jones!

On Feb. 21, Ms. Jones attended the funeral of James White, Mr. Clyburn’s accountant. After serving as an usher at the service at St. John Baptist Church in Hopkins, S.C., Ms. Jones noticed Mr. Clyburn standing against a nearby wall. On the spur of the moment, she said, she waved him over, with a crook of her finger, to the pew where she was sitting.

He leaned over, and she whispered, “I need to know who you’re going to vote for.” He replied: “Joe Biden. Are we together?”

“When it’s politics, you don’t know who for who,’’ she recalled. But she said she gave him a thumbs up and then asked: “What are you going to do for him, for the people?”
