    Very well said. Most of our political problems are related to a lack of shared cultural values re opportunity & responsibility.

    our politics would work better if we were better at holding in common -- and celebrating together -- many things that aren't political

    "all"... Humbly, you should get out more. There's long been great angst many places, & Trump was the lever many used to shout dissent louder

    You should ask the American people, they'll all give you the same answer: Trump

    GWB says in "Decision Points" that he asked this at 1st meeting with a foreign leader (only discloses Hu answer)

    Decline of neighborhoods, family structures, long-term work, and an understanding of principled pluralism and the First Amendment.

    Scary times. Besides those two, what keeps you awake at night?
