It doesn't  matter what the color of your skin is, or what you believe in or not, we are all the same inside . President Trump, white supremacists  have got to go! I'm not sure what part of this racists don't get. When will we  be done with this hate. I would like to see 2017 go out in peace and love.                                                                             CHAG SAMEACH

What is the big issue with immigrants? Why all of the panic? If immigrants come to this country and learn the language and get and keep a job, pay taxes and raise families, let's respect them. On this important American holiday, we should be thankful for everyone. Have a happy and prosperous Thanksgiving!

2017  was a great season for the Cubs as they won 92 games and finished 6 games ahead of the Brewers in the NL Central division. After beating the Nationals in an exciting division championship series, our Cubs suffered a sad loss to the Dodgers for the trip to the World Series. Still, thanks Cubbies for making the playoffs 3 years in a row!

An unfair tax on sweetened  drinks has  been voted down. That doesn't mean sugary  drinks are good for you! We all should drink more water! The taxpayers have spoken with  authority and were  heard!

Immigrants helped build the USA. Immigrants are friendly and  hard working.  I'm comfortable around them. Why shouldn't they be treated with respect and compassion? I support Congress passing an Immigration bill that gives the  young adult " Dreamers" a path to citizenship. These people deserve respect and  should  not be underestimated  for their  contribution to our country.

With less than 20 regular season games to go in the 2017 season, I project the Chicago Cubs will repeat as World Series champions. They've  got the muscle, they've got the hustle. They  must stay healthy. What do you think?

We have a state budget  after more than two years-- no thanks to Gov. Bruce Rauner. But the school funding bill that the Governor held Chicago and our children hostage to his childish agenda, will get our  schools open on time. I want to wish our students, teachers and parents a safe and successful school year!
