Consider the Fence

     Clint Eastwood wanted us to consider an empty chair as he spoke at the Republican party convention this past August.  The empty chair has become symbolic in this political fight.  The president's chair is not an easy chair to fill under any circumstances.  The chair of the United States of America presidency is considered the place where the leader of the free world sits.  So, consider who you really want to fill that chair.  Will it become someone who treasures freedom from its very conception?  Or will it be someone who would deny freedom at conception?  Will it be someone who denies inalienable rights or someone who has already denied them?  Will it be someone who will protect those rights?  (added for clarity- parables are sometimes confusing).
     Many people will not consider the chair this election, instead they will consider a fence.
