On this Presidents' Day 2016: Remembering Woodrow Wilson

We welcome you to a new week here in #Outsiders.    We are pleased to honor and remember Presidents' today as we feature selected thoughts throughout our Properties.   This from President Wilson was especially poignant for us as we salute all who have served America:

Notations On Our World (Special Edition): On the Eve of Presidents' Day in the United States.....

It is the eve of President's Day in the United States.      This compliation by +Jonathan Huie was quite timely as we pay homamge to the Office of the President of The United States that is the highest gift the American People can bestow on any person:



 




The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie,
deliberate, contrived and dishonest,
but the myth, persistent, persuasive and unrealistic.
- John F. Kennedy (35th President of the United States)

Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds.
- Franklin D. Roosevelt (32nd President of the United States)

We hold these truths to be self-evident:
that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights,
among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
- Thomas Jefferson (third President of the United States)
[Declaration of Independence, and inscribed in the Jefferson Memorial]

Happy Presidents Day!!!

Notations On Our World (Special Edition): On the Passing of US Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia

Our team released this earlier on the Daily Outsider Twitter Channel as the battle lines are being drawn on who will replace him--which also came up during the latest Republican debate as they called for President Obama to allow the next President to nominate the next Justice:

He was a brilliant intellect and many (including our team here @ Outsiders) disagreed with many of his narrow views.    We here at The Daily Outsider, though,  extend our condolences to the Scalia Family as we salute him for his service to the United States.   May his soul RIP.
