Being Kind to Politicians on Different Sides

lgi01a201410060100

Today someone asked me how I could be nice to politicians on two opposite sides of the spectrum and the answer was simple.

They were two different states.

With two different populations.

Two different belief systems.

Two totally different economies.

Two different levels of debt.

Drastically different race relations and mixes.

In short it’s because I am authentically reasonable. We can’t be shortsighted about the facts and fall into identity politics.
