Nonsense  from  the  beltway The  Beltway  chatter  among  political  pundits,  as  well  as  the  Democratic  Party  elite,  has  been  hammering  home  a  single  storyline  for  the  past  two  weeks:  Bernie  Sanders’s  continued  presence  in  the  primary  is  hurting  Hillary  Clinton’s  chances  to  beat  Republican  Donald  Trump.  What  nonsense.  :KDWÂśV KXUWLQJ &OLQWRQÂśV FKDQFHV DJDLQVW 7UXPS LV WKDW VKH LV D Ă€DZHG FDQGLGDWH ZKR KDV GLIÂżFXOW\ FRQQHFWLQJ WR WKH DYHUDJH YRWHU VKH KDV D WRQ of  political  baggage  that  will  continue  to  haunt  her,  and  she  has  extremely  high  negatives.  That’s  the  truth  the  party  elite  doesn’t  want  to  confront. Bernie  is  not  bringing  Hillary  down.  On  the  contrary,  the  contest  between  Hillary  and  Bernie  is  exciting  voters  and  drawing  Democratic  voters  out  to  the  polls  by  the  millions.  Bernie  is  also  signing  up  more  new  Democratic  and  independent  voters  at  each  stop.  That  helps  all  Democrats  up  and  down  the  ticket. What’s  dragging  down  Clinton  is  a  Democratic  Party  establishment  that  refuses  to  acknowledge  the  groundswell  of  support  for  Sanders  and  respond  to  the  voters’  pleas  for  change.  What  could  Clinton  and  Democratic  National  Committee  Chairwoman  Debbie  Wasserman  Schultz  do  differently?  First,  concede  Sanders’s  call  for  making  Democratic  Party  primaries  open  in  future  elections  (not  2016,  but  in  2020)  a  reality,  limit  the  role  of  Superdelegates  in  future  primaries,  assure  primary  debates  continue  as  long  as  the  race  is  competitive.  In  short,  establish  a  primary  system  that  is  balanced  and  fair.  If  Clinton  would  encourage  the  Democratic  Party’s  hierarchy  to  concede  those  points  now,  much  of  the  heated  debate  would  dissipate.  What  upsets  Sanders’s  supporters  is  the  feeling  that  unless  they  achieve  FRQFHVVLRQV DKHDG RI WKH FRQYHQWLRQ RU GXULQJ D ÂżJKW DW WKH FRQYHQWLRQ WKH\ ZLOO QRW FKDQJH WRGD\ÂśV Ă€DZHG V\VWHP ************ Pundits  also  tried  to  pin  the  uprising  at  the  Nevada  convention  on  Bernie,  but,  again,  the  aim  was  misdirected.  When  Bernie  addressed  the  Democratic  Party  Convention  in  Nevada,  he  simply  gave  an  honest  assessment  of  the  consequences  of  maintaining  closed  primaries.  “The  Democratic  Party  has  a  choice,â€?  he  said.  “It  can  open  its  doors  DQG ZHOFRPH LQWR WKH SDUW\ SHRSOH ZKR DUH SUHSDUHG WR ÂżJKW IRU UHDO economic  and  social  change  —  people  who  are  willing  to  take  on  Wall  Street,  corporate  greed  and  a  fossil  fuel  industry  which  is  destroying  this  planet.  Or  the  party  can  choose  to  maintain  its  status  quo  structure,  remain  dependent  on  big-Âmoney  campaign  contributions  and  be  a  party  with  limited  participation  and  limited  energy.â€? He  went  on  to  admonish  his  supporters  for  being  unruly  at  that  event  and  asked  them  to  remain  civil  at  events,  as  he  has  for  the  past  year,  but  that  doesn’t  mean  he  should  apologize  for  remaining  in  the  race.  That’s  absurd.  Bernie  entered  the  race  to  start  a  revolution;Íž  to  be  part  of  a  party  that  champions  help  for  the  poor  and  that  bolsters  the  middle  class.  At  that,  he  is  being  successful.  To  ask  him  to  step  down  before  that  task  is  taken  to  every  state  is  just  simply  not  in  Bernie’s  game  plan.  Clinton  has  said  she  believes  Bernie  will  unite  behind  her  candidacy  to  help  beat  Trump,  and  no  doubt,  when  the  time  comes  after  California  votes  and  the  party  makes  appropriate  changes  and  concessions,  he  will. In  the  meantime,  Bernie  continues  to  champion  what  he  thinks  the  Democratic  policies  should  be:  universal  health  care,  $15  minimum  wage,  better  trade  agreements,  creating  millions  of  jobs  by  pouring  more  money  into  public  infrastructure,  fair  immigration  laws,  saving  the  planet  by  reducing  our  carbon  dioxide  emissions,  and  on  and  on.  Those  are  the  ideas  that  have  earned  him  such  passionate  support.  Clinton  and  the  Democrats  should  pay  attention  and  embrace  the  best  of  those  efforts. The  Democratic  Party  leadership  and  Hillary  need  Bernie  and  his  supporters  to  generate  the  energy  and  passion  needed  to  win  this  election.  7KH ULJKW PRYH LV WR VWRS ORRNLQJ D JLIW KRUVH LQ WKH PRXWK DQG ÂżJXUH RXW how  to  harness  Bernie’s  support,  rather  than  asking  him  to  pack  his  bags  and  leave  early.  Angelo  S.  Lynn

Defense  of  ExxonMobil  misguided To  the  extreme  minority  of  folks  that  are  climate  change  deniers  like  the  letter  writer  (Addison  Indepen- dent,  May  12,  2016,  “Sorrell  joins  the  ‘global  warmists’â€?),  they  would  have  to  be  conspiracy  theorists  or  lacking  in  knowledge  to  not  understand  the  clear  consensus  that  climate  change  is  happening  and  that  human  activities  are  contribut- ing  greatly  to  it. It  is  simply  nonsensical  to  go  against  the  various  American  VFLHQWLÂżF VRFLHWLHV QDWLRQDO DQG international  science  academies,  the  Intergovernmental  Panel  on  Climate  Change,  the  highly  respected  NASA  and  NOAA  federal  agencies,  the  175  countries  that  signed  the  recent  Paris  climate  change  agreement,  and  ExxonMobil  itself,  who  now  acknowledges  climate  change  risk  after  its  climate  change  deception  (as  stated  in  an  ExxonMobil  2014  report:  “ExxonMobil  takes  the  risk  of  climate  change  seriously,  and  continues  to  take  meaningful  steps  to  help  address  the  risk  and  to  ensure  our  facilities,  operations  and  investments  are  managed  with  this Â

But  what  really  perplexes  me  is  the  letter  writer’s  rant  at  Vermont  Attorney  Gen.  William  Sorrell  and  other  AGs  for  “shaking  downâ€?  ExxonMobil.  I  understand  what  is  purported,  but  we  are  talking  about  perhaps  the  most  evil  corporation  in  the  history  of  Earth  that  has  committed  unimaginable  disasters  to  our  planet  over  decades,  starting  with  more  than  200,000  tons  of  oil  spilled  (including  the  infamous  ([[RQ 9DOGH] UHÂżQHU\ H[SOR- sions,  violating  U.S.  Clean  Air  Act  regulations  by  emitting  hazardous  air  pollutants  above  permitted  lim- its  —  including  benzene,  toluene,  propylene,  ethylene,  sulfur  dioxide,  nitrogen  oxides,  hexane,  methylene  chloride,  and  other  volatile  organic  compounds,  the  list  goes  on  and  on.

for  the  common  man. I  have  been  in  grocery  stores,  short  of  change,  where  an  unfa- miliar  face  has  reached  out  and  helped  me  get  my  needed  goods.  I  have  a  philanthropic  food  shelf  that  provides  me  with  my  nutrition  and  sustenance  throughout  the  month.  I  have  an  Episcopal  church  that  has  opened  its  arms  lovingly,  and  when  my  mother  passed  away,  gave  her  three  sisters  and  immediate  family  spiritual  attention  and  a  service  at  a  stately  and  respected  house  of  worship.  Vocational  counselors  have  responsibly  scoped  a  strug- gling  market  so  I  could  seek  a  job.  The  list  goes  on  —  hands  reaching  to  hands. Then  again,  we  need  to  look  at  our  everyday,  mundane  life  of  work  and  family  obligations.  Can  motorists  and  truck  drivers  heed  pedestrians  and  cyclists?  I  have  re- sided  here  since  2014  and  already  read  of  two  unfortunate  deaths  or  more  due  to  negligence.  Can  we  protect  our  homes  against  unwant-Â
ed  invasion,  such  as  the  felon,  to  get  drug  money,  who  went  up  and  down  Route  7  from  Brandon,  cas- ing  houses  and  apartments,  ripping  them  off  nonchalantly  and  unob- served?  Can  landlords  nurture  our  golden  eggs,  our  paying  residents,  by  upkeeping  properties,  being  fair  on  pricing,  and  preserving  our  history  by  keeping  an  established  code?  These  are  questions  we  need  to  consider  as  voters. I  become  disillusioned  when  I  think  of  these  controversial  ques- tions.  Like  Darwinian  theories  and  the  book  of  Hebrews  in  the  Bible,  societies  have  proven  competi- tive  —  a  healthy  thing  —  but  that  positively  “they  work  for  the  good.�  For  the  sake  of  setting  a  pace  as  a  progressive  and  great  state,  let’s  pay  attention  and  truly  make  Vermont  a  place  of  respect  and  dignity. This  Vermont  for  ages  to  come  can  be  “a  home  where  the  heart  is.� Barry  Churchill Middlebury

BRISTOL  —  Theodore  F.  “Tadâ€?  Manila,  61,  died  Feb.  17,  2016.  He  was  born  and  raised  in  Plainville,  Conn.,  where  he  and  the  Buckler  boys  went  from  short  pants  to  long  trousers.  Tad  was  predeceased  by  his  parents,  Frank  and  Ruth  (Newton)  Manila;Íž  and  his  sisters,  Anna  Frances  (Combs)  Palmer  (Mike),  and  Connie  (Timms)  Katzer.

Tad’s  greatest  love  was  the  Boston  Red  Sox;Íž  he  knew  all  their  stats.  Growing  up  in  Plainville,  Conn.,  he  was  able  to  see  them  play  at  Fenway  Park.  His  memories  he  could  bring  IRUWK ZLWK D KLQW RU VQDS RI WKH Âż QJHUV While  in  Florida,  he  worked  part  time  at  the  Rays  Stadium.  At  that  time,  the  team  was  known  as  the  Devil  Rays.

Here  he  collected  many  autographs  and  trinkets  from  the  players  and  got  to  meet  many  others  from  all  the  different  teams  that  played  during  the  season.  This  was  a  dream  come  true. Also  while  in  Florida,  Tad  worked  for  Sherer  Manufacturing  Inc.  as  a  truck  driver.  Another  great  love,  driv- ing.  After  hurting  his  foot  he  became  unable  to  drive  an  18-Âwheeler.  It  was  at  this  time  he  decided  to  go  to  Vermont,  coming  to  Bristol  in  2007.  Here  he  got  to  know  some  really  good  friends.  One  such  friend,  Earl  Booska,  they  were  OLNH EURWKHUV 7KH\ Âż VKHG DQG KXQWHG and  ate  burgers  together.  They  laughed  and  cried,  told  jokes,  all  things  that  brothers  do. His  health  started  a  downward  sweep  and  Tad  was  making  many  runs  to  the  doctors  and  to  the  hospital.  On  the  16th  of  February,  Tad  came  home  from  the  hospital,  sat  in  his  chair.  On  the  17th  of  February,  Tad  passed  away,  four  months  before  his  62nd  birthday,  June  17. Tad  loved  life  and  was  not  afraid  to  embrace  it.  We  love  you,  brother.  Your  family  and  friends  want  you  to  know  that  we  will  miss  you  but  will  always  remember  your  laughter  and  jovial  ways  as  we  see  you  in  our  mind.

Lions Club offering free vision screenings to area children MIDDLEBURY — The Middle- bury Lions will hold a free vision screening for children at Ilsley Li- brary in Middlebury on Friday and Saturday, May 27 and 28, from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. More than 12 million school-age children in the United States have some form of vision problem, yet only one in three have received eye care services before age six. Many vision problems run the risk of be- coming permanent if not corrected by age seven, when the eye reaches full maturity. Vision also plays an important role in education. Accord- ing to educational experts, 80 per-
cent of learning is visual. This is not an eye chart exam. The Lions Clubs of Vermont purchased 4 Welch Allen spot vision screener cameras last year and to date have screened over 11,000 Vermont resi- dents. The camera reliably screens for six amblyopic risk factors: myopia (nearsightedness);; hypero- pia (farsightedness);; astigmatism (blurred vision);; anisometropia (un- equal refractive power);; strabismus (eye misalignment);; and anisocoria (unequal pupil size). The camera is not a substitute for a full eye exam by an optome- trist. For example, it cannot detect

While the festival offers activities for children, attendees are asked to leave their llamas at home.
Rhubarb Festival to be held in Middlebury Sat., June 4 MIDDLEBURY — The seventh annual Rhubarb Festival is coming Saturday, June 4, to the Champlain Valley Unitarian Universalist So- ciety (CVUUS) on Duane Court in Middlebury, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Patrons will enjoy a savory feast of local turkey medallions with rhu- barb chutney, roasted rhubarb green salad (with optional walnuts and Blue Ledge goat cheese toppings), and rhubarb crisp with fresh whipped cream. All are available gluten-free and dairy-free, and served by a trio of cheerful waiters. Diners will have a choice of three seatings in the church sanctuary: 11:15 a.m., noon, and 12:45 p.m. Take-out meals are available at ev-
ery seating for $10. A lunch ticket costs $8, and $5 for children under 12. For $25 one can reserve lunch and a pie. There will be an abundance of sweets, savories and rhubarb pies for sale, but come early for strawberry- rhubarb. Also for sale will be gently used books, bling, scarves, a variety of house and home-grown plants, basil, tomato, nasturtium, zinnia, DQG PLONZHHG WR DWWUDFW EXWWHUÀLHV Kids can go to the Fenn House next door for fun games and face paint- LQJ 6FRWWLVK ¿GGOHUV DQG VLQJHUV will delight the ear throughout the day.

The screening typically takes about 60 seconds and the child/adult will see a series of lights and hear a noise similar to birds chirping while obtaining the measurements. What parents will get is a screening result which indicates that their child’s vision is within normal range, or a referral print-out that they can give to their optometrist showing the risk factor

! o e L I’m I live with six humans who are the coolest people I know. There is a mom and a dad, three awesome boys and an amazing girl. The dad is my favorite and I spend as much time hanging out with him as I can. When he works in his home RIÀ FH , VLW RQ WKH NH\ERDUG DQG KHOS KLP ZULWH emails. When he is in the garage, I sit on the work bench and make sure he does a good job on his shop projects. Our best time together, though, is when he just sits on the coach and holds me in his lap. He pets me for long stretches at a time, which is great, because I get to purr and purr and purr. I love this time!
The rest of the family tries to hold me, but I am kind of a one-person cat and my person is Dad. Living with my sister cat, Ginger, is great. We were left on the side of the road in Virginia and rescued a couple of years ago. A wonderful woman named Terri brought us to our new home in Vermont and we have never looked back. It is wonderful to know there are such good people in the world and I feel like one of the luckiest cats around. Michael Angelo Giorgio Middlebury

Leave  fawns  alone  for  their  safety MONTPELIER  —  The  Vermont  Fish  &Wildlife  Department  says  deer  fawns  are  being  born  this  time  of  year  and  asks  that  people  avoid  disturbing  or  picking  them  up.

Fortin  says  it  is  best  to  keep  your  distance  because  the  fawn’s  mother  is  almost  always  nearby.  When  people  see  a  small  fawn  alone,  they  often  mistakenly  assume  it  is  helpless,  lost  or  needing  to  be  rescued. Fawns  do  not  attempt  to  evade  SUHGDWRUV GXULQJ WKHLU ¿ UVW IHZ ZHHNV LQVWHDG UHO\LQJ RQ FDPRXÀ DJH and  stillness  to  remain  undetected.  During  these  times,  fawns  learn  criti- cal  survival  skills  from  their  mothers.  Bringing  a  fawn  into  a  human  envi- ronment  results  in  separation  from  its  mother,  and  it  usually  results  in  a  sad  ending  for  the  animal.
