It is so discouraging to think that some people in this country, or perhaps many, think we are making a film about the United States rather than living in the United States.
Real world issues and home grown issues that will affect us today and future generations are on the table, but folks are playing to the crowd as if a projector was rolling and any outcome could be determined by the film footage.
A man that served his country and was interred as a POW does not make a hero, but a man who suffered misfortune. It doesn't make him a qualified candidate to run a country.
A woman who applauds an early pregnancy, and touts a rifle is not tough but 'ig'norant about the consequences of early child rearing.
And on the other side, I am not blind to the celebrity status Obama has received or the shortcomings of Joe Biden, but taken as a whole, trying to step back from the stage, I'd say we have a better chance, not an absolute victory, with this Democratic ticket than with this Republican one.
