Bob Brown's opinion matters

A former Montana legislator, secretary of state and Republican candidate for governor, Bob Brown, recently endorsed the Democratic candidate for U. S. president. His endorsement was not without criticism. Our great country protects all people’s right to state their opinions.

Bob Brown has been a personal friend for over 50 years. His commitment, knowledge and dedication to U.S. political processes are exemplary, and I respect his opinions even when we differ. Bob consistently displays statesmanship and treats adversaries with respect and civility. Stay the course, Bob. —Dan Johns, Kalispell
