The only thing I find disgusting in this conversation is that no one realizes the people voted an inexperienced man to the highest position in America. I care less what race, religion or sex occupies the office of president. What I do expect is the occupier be, at the very least, experienced in proper decorum for the office.
Any time you have a chance to "showcase" your talents, go for it! Either mats only or metal frames w/non-glare glass and standard size off white mats. Customers, most likely, will want to choose frame and mat color based on room décor. Best of luck.
