Problem is, and has been for a long time, that because we have such a decisive divide in the Country that has become increasingly more polarized and entrenched on both sides, no matter who “wins” WE as a Nation lose. We are not gonna be able to convince 70 million of those in disagreement with us of our values and vice versa, they will not be able to convince 70 million of us of their junk.
So short of coming Civil War that I assure you no sane person would want, we need to start coming up with solutions that drive towards so sense of unity otherwise my dear friends, it isn’t gonna go well.
And I emphasize as I’ve done ad nauseum here, I have lived 5 years thru one civil war and everyone lost, a lot. There has to be some sense of representation on both sides at the WH level. All other roads lead to our (and by our I mean us and them combined) demise, giving advantage to our foreign
enemies.

Not sure if my esl is coming thru clearly enough.

I agree with you Russ but why can’t we shoot for both? Again, I’m pondering these things as I see the war brewing on both sides and then only Facebook, Twitter and MSM will win.

Term limits -> Yes! End of two party takes all -> Yes!

Seeing how no matter what, we always end up with half+ of the Country feeling left behind and frustrated, and to a point where folks are reaching the boiling point, I heard an interesting idea...get rid of winner takes all system and allow the winner to take the Presidency with loser taking the VP spot.
In this way, each Party would feel like they have representation and my conjecture is that this could prevent the coming Civil War, as each side would have a foot in (after all both would have to work together which could be positive for the Nation).

I just don’t see how we can go on, where 69+ million of folks will be beyond boiling point. Whether Dems or us, it fuels the fire. I’d say the same if Trump was in the decisive lead. We cannot go on like this if we want to remain as a Nation.

Just thinking of ways to prevent what will come very soon unless some drastic change comes.

Am I alone here?
