I think Obama was closer to Eisenhower than to many democrats. But the Grand Old Party had weaponized racism and ethnic hate along with misinformation already. So whatever virtues he had were denied major accomplishments. At least there’s the ACA. A compromise for sure. Not real national health care. And they demonized that. The two party system is a problem because both sides realize polarization serves them well. The primary system weeds out moderates. The general election is won by gerrymandering. We need a nationwide philosophical change. Your principals are excellent. I’d vote for those! And I vote democratic. But insanity rules and gets the retweets.
