   February 8, 2012

A Quick One: SuperPACs are like nuclear weapons.  If one side has ’em then both sides gotta’ have ’em.

I can’t blame him for changing his mind.  It may be M.A.D., but what else can he do?

  2. trust in and engage the people in the message and the solutions and they will trust and vote for you – no money required!

  3. The American political landscape has deteriorated in the past 5-6 years massivly mostly from rhetoric and partisanship. We push other countries to be like ours, but we all know, our system is quite broken. Until we can start being civil and respect eachother, then maybe once, democracy will finally be as good as we say it is.

    1. Do you think John Adams was “being civil” when he said of Thomas Paine, the author of Common Sense,

      I know not whether any man in the world has had more influence on its inhabitants or affairs for the last thirty years than Tom Paine. There can be no severer satyr on the age. For such a mongrel between pig and puppy, begotten by a wild boar on a bitch wolf, never before in any age of the world was suffered by the poltroonery of mankind, to run through such a career of mischief. Call it then the Age of Paine.

      American politics is driven by divisive speech and has been since before the founding of the Republic. I think you’re overly optimistic in your desire that we change now.
