J.A. Jackson , AT "Maybe I should feel honored that the President of the United States spent the night less than 20 miles from my home, but I do not. Maybe I should feel some connection to him now that his feet touched the beautiful white beaches that I have walked since my childhood, but I cannot. Last night he ate of the bounty of my land and I should be grateful to share, but I simply did not.
"I cried when I saw Marine One take off from Tyndall Air Force Base yesterday morning, not because I was proud, but because I was not proud. As an American, that is a difficult thing to believe...that I could ever not be proud of my president. And it hurts."
