LULAC @ 4,000
Today marks the 4,000th edition of The LuLac Political Letter. As we approached that number, I began to think that maybe it might be time to wind down this project of mine. It has lasted longer than I ever expected in terms of people liking it and me wanting to keep at it. So there were thoughts that ending it with a nice round number might be a good thing. But when I least expect it, in the most non political places, people stop me and tell me how much they enjoy it, like it, hate it, think I’m off the rails or just don’t want me to stop. That is humbling and heartening at the same time.
We got to 3,000 in the summer of 2015. So 5,000 will mean I might be sticking around for a while. With the grace of good health and Providence, here we go on the journey to try to make sense of this challenging time in the political and pop culture life of our nation.
Thanks to my posters, partners, the political actors and readers. Without you there would be no LuLac.
Ready, set……go.
