What to make of this complicated time in our nation's history? Some thoughts from Doris Kearns Goodw

Our two parties are feeding off of our worst instincts. We are a divided nation only interested in proving the other side wrong. The majority of people are more concerned with having their “team” in power even if NOTHING gets accomplished. WHY, because keeping the opposition out of power is the priority...

No, I am right. It's a fact that the Democrats lost 1,000 seats in 2010.

Resting on your laurel's? Be my ... jest.
 
Professor Corey's signature is right. Now more than ever, America needs to be united. However, I think it's up to us, the American people, to promote unity instead of the politicians. Think about it: America was designed as a country for the people by the people. This means that all of America's politicians rely on us for political power. However, since neither side is trying to bridge the division America is suffering, it is therefore up to us, the people themselves, to promote unity because, in my opinion, someone's gotta do it.

No matter if you are FAAAAAAR Right or EXTREEEEEEEM Left, now is the time for ALL AMERICANS to pull together. If we continue this trend of hateful, fearful infighting we WILL destroy each other, our Constitution and our Beloved Country! I don't care if you hate "lefties" or fear "righties", remember HATE and FEAR is how you are being controlled. STOP!!!

There is no more IF, I wish I was wrong but things will get far worse and we will look back on these days and wonder why we could not just sit down and talk. Sorry, I wish more more would listen to your voice but it simply is not gonna happen. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

Obviously propaganda, voter suppression and faulty poling has worked in the right's favor. I believe that trend is swinging the other way.

This is a very important election, I hope EVERY -> American <- get's out to the polls and votes. That's something the right fears and the left embraces.

You people don't want to talk. You only want everyone to shutup and do what you want.
