End Of The World 1

What with all of the weird stuff going around the world, every few years one side or the other starts predicting the end of the world. Every president is predicted by the other side to be the doomsday president. It usually doesn't quite work out that way, although we have had some close calls. When Nixon was going to China, Doomsday! Even one of the now favorite presidents, Reagan, was called a crazy actor who was going to push the red button. Even Obama was criticized for starting wars with drones. Bush, Carter, Clinton, all of them were going to start the end of the world to one extent or the other. Even Gore predicted the end of humanity by 2012. All started one war or skirmish or the other, but somehow, by the grace of God, we didn't start the End Of The World. But with the protests and talk of another Civil War, I started to come up with a playlist for the next time someone predicts the END of the World! Here's the first volume of my pick. More tomorrow.
