I was listening to comedian Lewis Black the other day. In his new album "Anticipation" he makes the point that the anticipation of a new president or other elected official always seems to turn out better than the reality of that person's term in office. I'm paraphrasing here, but he goes on to suggest that if you really think things are a mess in our country right now, they're a mess because the Democrats and Republicans have allowed them to get to that point. If the Democrats and Republicans are therefore responsible for the current mess, how is electing another Democrat or Republican going to make things any better? I don't want to start a flame war between Democrats and Republicans, or some kind of a blame game. The point of this blog idea is for you to think about your personal values and beliefs and envision the political party that would be perfect for YOU. If it's the Democrats or Republicans, fine. If not, what would that party be like? What would it stand for? What kind of campaign promises would its candidates for office be making?
