Democracy Will Prevail

Nov 9, 2024 - 4:42 pm

Never mistake a clear view for a short distance.”
– Paul Saffo

Tuesday’s result was both unexpected and, of course, a hard shake-up of my reality. As it was and continues to be for many if not most of us. How could I have so badly misread the pulse of my fellow citizens, I keep asking myself.
Whole New World
I’m seeing a lot of interesting commentary about what this means, what we can and must learn from this setback, and how and where we go from here. I have just started working on an essay on this Big Subject, and will share it when it’s completed. Still thinking and absorbing.

I’ll also be doing more reading/listening/reflecting, paying some overdue attention to other tasks and people, getting a little R&R … etc.

But the dream of a Whole New World, and my faith in our ability to create this world, is still alive if not-seeming-too-well.

As Kamala said in her concession speech: [Read more…] about Democracy Will Prevail

D-Day is Upon Us!

Nov 2, 2024 - 12:44 am

As I announced in my October 7 post, I have put Whole New World on the back burner while I have been swallowed up by a new paid-work assignment. Since then, to put it mildly, a lot has happened in the presidential campaign!

While I won’t attempt to comment on the wild and momentous events over these past few weeks, I will go on record now, just a few days from Election Day, with my prediction of the result and my reasoning behind it. And I invite you to offer your own prediction and perspective on the election in the Comments section at the end of the post.

I will continue posting, if sporadically for now, whatever the result on November 5. And I fully intend to return to more active posting at some point.

OK… so who do I believe is going to win? While the race is closer and tougher than I first believed it would be, I still believe Kamala Harris is going to be elected, and here’s why:

Kamala: Reverse the Order!

Sep 26, 2024 - 11:01 pm

Kamala Harris interview with Stephanie Ruhle

Contrary to the pitiful howls from both outright foes and critics-because-they-can like the New York Times, I thought Kamala’s interview yesterday with MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle was quite good. However I do have a suggestion to offer to Ms. Harris that I am confident would make her answers both more effective and less susceptible to attack: [Read more…] about Kamala: Reverse the Order!

There’s Only One Way Forward

Sep 19, 2024 - 12:28 am

The closer we get to November 5 the more alarmingly manifest our extreme polarization becomes. When this election is over, our top priority will be taking up the hard work of bridging our divides and healing the body politic.

And only one candidate can lead that effort, for the simple reason that only one candidate wants to lead that effort. [Read more…] about There’s Only One Way Forward

The Mystery of the Undecided Voter

Sep 11, 2024 - 6:38 pm

… it’s time we face an uncomfortable truth: the truly undecided voter is a myth. What we’re really seeing is a phenomenon of hidden Trump supporters, too embarrassed or afraid to admit their true intentions.”
– Joan Westenberg

Watching a few of the post-debate discussions with so-called ‘undecided voters’ last night, I got the distinct feeling [Read more…] about The Mystery of the Undecided Voter
