Maybe it’s because my grandfather left his teeth in Korea, or that my Dad suffered permanent injuries as a result of going through basic training before being released from the doctor during Vietnam. I never forget, and I don’t want a President who does either.

I have never been to one game where everyone solutes during the anthem. I think it is a weak argument against him. I hold a public office, a small one but it is one, and I have forgot to salute many times a Cubs games, why? It is a very easy thing to miss.
If you say you have never missed a solute I would venture to say that you might be exaggerating. The fact he was standing proves he showed reverence, I think people blow things out of the water.
Frankly it doesn't much matter since he will be the next president according to polls.
