The person or party that talks the most common sense never wins an election - because that's politics and its an old boy's network of the same old faces.

I wonder if Hilary will be any good.

According to the right Bernie is speaking in tongues so he's right on track.

Maybe it's less about convincing other people than it is about learning to better articulate and hone our own beliefs.

This is what I do, as I am sure many others are doing. This isn't the proper forum to have a formal debate to convince anyone of anything..unless two people agree to mutual combat and respect [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I know there is a better term for it than writing a whole sentence to describe it. And "self-improvement" isn't it..

Absolutely, and there is no better path to understanding than exploring other perspectives. I refine my views regularly, but the principles behind them do not change and I would expect the same to be true for other rational human beings. Those principles are:

1. Be not a nuisance
2. Behave responsibly

The principles directly reflect what I value most in my life: peace. I hate fighting and generally just want to be left alone. At the same time I hold reason and skepticism (eww an -ism, I know) in high regard since it is those qualities, the exceptional ability to consider and act outside of primal impulse that distinguishes man from most other creatures.

Differing principles allow for divergent conclusions given the same data even among comparable intellects. Unfortunately we can almost always find contradictory data sets, each created to validate the views of their collectors and since none of the rest of us have the time to conduct the research first-hand, we are generally inclined to choose the data that supports our world view. So we are left with people arguing from two entirely different worlds, often reluctant to understand or even view another world for fear that their own might be a farce. An open mind is an extraordinary rarity and is something most people are incapable of despite the low bar of admission.

At the end of the day I am mostly interested in learning how people make the decisions they do.

Go Bernie!
