Politics ...

... have gotten really bad in my opinion.  Why do they spend so much time saying what the opponent did wrong and what is bad about their opponent?  Come on, do you really expect me to believe that there is not one issue or even an aspect of an issue that both sides agree on?  Really?

Wouldn't it be great if we heard a candidate say 'Well, my opponent has done some good things or has some good ideas but I think that my ideas are better and here is what they are'  Wow, that would be different.

Our politics have become extremely polarized.  They call attention to things about the other side to make you not like them.  I think that our society has become polarized  and I really don't like it.  I will not be discussing politics with you unless we basically agree or if you want generalities like I have written here.
