LETTERS: On Haley and leadership; old photos

Play it again, Sam, on health care

To the editor:

South Carolinians will know that Gov. [Nikki] Haley is all grown up when she brings the uninsured into the medical universe of the treated with adequate medical care and when she brings in the uninsured by exercising her option of enrolling S.C. into the Medicare option of the Affordable Care Act.

Until then, she remains heartless despite her position on the Confederate flag. For that, I and many others applaud. But far more needs to be done, for sure, besides presenting an alternative face to a bunch of white political leaders to garner some votes.

Lowering of the Confederate Flag gave a, instance of true leadership. Play it again, Sam! It’s time.

On old photos

To the editor:

The Library of Congress digital collection has many of these, too.  (See Summerville)

I love browsing these images from all across S.C. history.
