A peaceful transition of power. What a nice set of words to describe what was once a fair assumption. The sky is blue, the sun will set and the White House changes occupants on Inauguration Day with grace and humility. Indeed, for three decades now, as a capstone to that calm, there`s a lovely gesture, a letter of encouragement, written by the outgoing president to the incoming president and left inside the new president`s desk. Ronald Reagan started the tradition. He left a note for George H.W. Bush, who left a note for Bill Clinton, who left one for George W. Bush, who wrote to Barack Obama, who left a note for Donald Trump, who — OK, can we all assume Trump will not follow tradition?...
