    In January we witnessed the horrible attack on Charlie Hebdo in Paris. I was shocked, as were many others.

It felt like it could be just below the surface. Sadly, it was.

He proposed free community college for “everyone who’s willing to work for it.” He emphasized the proposal as being a cultural shift and an idea he would like to see spread all across America.
