I like this piece as well. One thing I've found hard to articulate but that I think is relevant is that being "right" in terms of facts is not serving us very well. Victory by consensus is what matters and, in our system, it doesn't even have to be a national consensus since the preferences of those in sparsely populated states and rural areas are given special treatment. You can be right on all points about how national budgets work, how the economy functions, how diplomacy is best pursued and what the environment will or won't tolerate and it doesn't matter at all if you can't win the crucial consensus. We're not fighting hard enough. It's not enough to say that if we're right on the facts that people will come along with us sooner or later.

I really like this. I don't

I really like this. I don't have much to add, except that there is an "INDIVISIBLE" meeting tomorrow in Charlottesville and I am planning to go. I hope my son will go with me. If anything of interest happens I will write about it.
