If stranded on the side of the road, it is likely that people on both sides of the political aisle would be there to lend a hand. So why can’t we bring this humanity to our politics? Why are we tolerating anything less?
Our future is us. And we can be better.
Right now, democracy is stranded on the side of the road because of our divisive politics. The path forward should be about helping each other. I will vote wherever I see the most humanity. And I hope this changing political climate breeds better leaders and leaves behind dated politics and hate-filled egomaniacs.
