Thoughtful commentary

Reading the editorial "Unity and Leadership," June 1, reminds me of why the Monitor is the only newspaper I read. Today, it is indeed rare to see a newspaper that pursues solutions instead of sensation, and self-examination instead of self-aggrandizement. Thank you for being there. The world has need of you!
