I greatly admire and respect Mr. Lewis for his historic and steadfast work for his civil rights  work for Blacks and minorities. That being said, I am disappointed in his delegitimizing the current President and refusing to attend the innauguratiom. This is the second time he has assumed this position because he felt the elections were unfair, rigged, incorrect. G.W. Bush and Gore tied, settled by Supreme Court, he felt it was the incorrect outcome, even though the decision followed the Law.  He is assuming a same position today, states it was an illegitimate election because the Russians tampered with it and I have to wonder if his dislike for the candidate isn't included. So Mr. Lewis you are entitled to your personal opinions and actions but let me remind you that as a Congressman from your State you are until you are no longer in Congress the representative of ALL who reside in your District and should  show respect for the Government including  The Office of the Presidency.
