What I Hate About Politics

This is the side of politics that I hate - deciding on your message based on what plays well in the public.

“It’s a dog’s breakfast,” said Andrew Kohut, president of the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press, which has done extensive polling on public attitudes toward the war. “The reason that Democrats aren’t talking about specific plans to end the war is because it’s hard to figure out what to say without alienating a broad swath of the electorate.”

Is it too much to ask that our politicians talk about what they think is right even if it might alienate some voters? If it wasn't for Joe Biden, I would have no faith in the Democratic Party at all.
