Quote by: Cap Is it possible that politicians cannot fully represent every one of their personal views, if the are to have a reasonable chance of being elected to office? |
Possible? It's pure scientific fact. God help you if you leave them one micron of pretext to portray you as "unpatriotic" or (ineffable horror!) "liberal".
No. Every syllable has to be carefully packaged after thorough examination by the image wizards.
Anyway, forget the issues. When do they ever talk about the real issues in an US presidential campaign? Check the so-called debates between Hillary and Obama -- all about who's more electable. Iraq, climate change, national debt, etc. -- all taboo.
