Bergin letter: Presidential candidates

The debates with the candidates for president have been disappointing. I want them to know that I, at least, am not interested in the “dirty old Trump” or “lying Hillary” conversation. I want to know what and how they are going to lead our special country to be even better. And, by the way, we have always been a melting pot of people looking for a better life, let’s not mess that up just because these are scary times. The melting pot is what makes us amazing.
