In my opening post, I linked an article that I disagreed with. I posted it wondering if anyone could justify the contention of the 238 leading presidential scholars or if others were as surprised by their contention as I was. Of course, I didn't defend or try to rationalize the article.
This morning I found an article showing the other side of the coin. If nothing else, the headline is as definitive as that of the OP. This assessment has my sympathy and I will address any concerns, weaknesses, or criticisms of the article. I will not respond to generalizations or labels such as "silly" unless the poster is willing to address and explain what he or she thinks is "silly." Yes, I know it's biased. "Biased" means that it points to arguments, evidence, views, etc. that shed a favorable light on the point being made often at the expense of giving no weight to similar items that are detrimental to that point. It does not mean that it is wrong or in error. Just stating that it is biased is not a valid argument to invalidate the article, just a reason to question it... and that questioning is a good thing.

FTA:
One of the many links provided in the above article goes to this propaganda video. I have to admit, I'm sympathetic to its message and thought I'd share it as well.
