Great writing.   And if that is what the American people want to watch,(and aren't we a generation of TV watchers - now many media), It's a bit sad.   I like to hear real policy.    Representatives  that show some insight, use good statistics and have accomplishments get extra attention.

I think we all associate with some foundational principles that rate as very important in our judgement.    We all have different life experiences, different educations, different gifts or challenges.   It makes us all unique.

Politically, isn't it very strange - that with all the possible combinations of how values are established, we get only TWO personalities to choose from, Democrat or Republican?
