How about we try this for a change. Instead of all of this character assassination from both sides, we engage in the arena of ideas. I noticed, by following your links, that you are interested in income equality. How about using this forum for that discussion instead?
This isn’t a suggestion to bury our heads in the sand, but politics are now almost entirely focused on personal destruction instead of working toward the general welfare of the citizens.
