Hope for the future
In a way today shows that inclusion is possible and meaningful. If we can elect a president who was never had political experience we can hire people with disabilities who have not had much job experience. Sometimes it is important to get new perspectives and a person who may,on paper, look like they can't succeed but in real life that message doesn't always prove true. History shows many people who were successful in spite of their handicaps which may not be because of their minds, bodies,or behaviors. Furthermore it is true that just because a person acts inappropriately one time, the assumptions should not be made that (s)he will perform that way. Many people were horrified by the way he depicted a reporter who had a disability; that can't be considered insight to his character. Just because a person did not want help opening a door, that does not mean that the person doing the asking should decide to never offer that assistance again. There really are similarities.
