despot, 1 year ago | FlagCoop, being a "stupid liberal" from Boise Idaho, I was surprised and saddened by your name calling and your lack of accurate information about China and about me.
As a legally blind photographer, I was at many of the events in town and saw a ton of "stupid liberals" supporting the athelets. One of the things I like most about Special Olympics is thier encouageme nt to get people to respect all people. Perhaps you need more exposure to S.O. not less. -
DustinSOSC, 1 year ago | FlagDear Coop, I am unsure where you are coming from or what side of the fence you are on selecting a president.But I was one of the twelve Internatio nal Global Messengers who got to go to Shangai and Boise for the last two world games. The one thing they both had in common was the kind, loving and helpful people who might not have spoken your language helping you order food, get from place to place and supporting you no matter what disability or country you came from. At the games in Boise Vice President Joe Biden was there to speak to all the athletes and he said that this adminastra tion supports Special Olympics 100% so I am proud to have it in place.

kimbolea3, 1 year ago | FlagHi Coop,
I also think that having the Special Olympics World Games in China was a great chance to raise public awareness in their country. Athletes even had the opportunity to go out to more rural communitie s before the competitio ns started, experience a different culture, meet people and share their stories. I think everyone that was a part of the event felt very welcome, and the organizers worked very hard to host the World Games. -

We were all treated with respect and kindness, all the athletes were very happy and recieved al the attention from the chinese people. It was a very nice experienceand I really hope you will have the chance to go to China sometime and see what a nice country it is.
