    What few democrat coin collectors I have personally known were PRICKS

    That's my humble opinion of course! >:)

    Edit to add it's almost hypocritical to be a democrat and a coin collector at the same time! :#

    John is a recent former Numismatist of the Year. He's also one of the most respected individuals in the industry. It's news. He is also one of the nicest people I've ever met bar none. I'm proud to call him a friend

    John is a good man ... regardless of his politics or party affiliation. I believe he will go into the election with the best intention to do what is right for his fellow citizens. He has such a wealth of knowledge and understanding of the founding of this great nation that I be he will channel Thomas Jefferson when in office! Good luck, John.

    And for the politically sensitive ... I'm a Libertarian, so his party affiliation means little to me.

    Maybe I can get booted tonight! Then Ya'll won't be able to see all my Purdy Barber Half's I was going to post tomorrow.

    I'm sorry if I offend! But I am old school,have never been raciest at all,but am so against the direction the Democrats want to lead us I can't help but speak my piece among those with the same collecting interests I have. The pied piper will take coins away from all but the ultra rich.

    My opinion of a Democratic politician is someone who promises the world to the minions so he can get elected into a cushy job. Sure there are a few exceptions but not many!

    I hope this thread is poofed before I am banned! :p

    I'm not a Democrat, and I was the first to flag you. Politics should involve civil discourse and not personal attacks. This is especially true when you know nothing about the individual that is the subject of this thread.

    It seems coin-news worthy that a very well respected, intelligent, numismatic dealer is running for a public service elective office. (Maybe some of the complainers should try it -- it is very difficult, and personally disruptive. Been there, too....)

    Should liberal coin collectors use the vitriol and animus displayed in this thread by you as a reason to bash conservative coin collectors? They too would be expressing their personal experience. You cannot logically box in an entire group based on a "few" (your own word).

    P.S. How could your comments not be construed as personal? This thread is about a specific dealer running for a state legislature. He happens to be a member of the group you are maligning. The logical implication is that he, by analogy and association, is similar. If that was not your intent then what logical purpose could your post serve other than to troll the others and create chaos?

    Aftere reading another thread here about the educator-numismatist that passed away at 59, why don't we all take afew moments and think about those that have made a difference in our lives and the lives of others. We all can appreciate and be thankful for having the opportunity know terrific people... Let's not lose sight of what is important. There should be a place for courtesy and respect. There is simply no need to turn this thread into something that is not representative of our values...

    Yours is obnoxiously partisan. There's way too much partisan politics here. If you have to vent do it elsewhere. There's plenty of political websites out there-I'm sure you can find one where you feel right at home.

    I have never been one to bite my tongue. Haven't met the candidate, but everything noted about him on the forum over many years has been of the highest regard.

    The OP adding a contribution link was pushing the limits. Your now banished comment would have made Samantha Bee blush.
