The new bright light on the horizon

Can anyone see this new light. It is the light of bipartisanship. Today it is the issue of immigration, so important to most of us and our future.

Most cynics already know the devious machinations of their political opponents. Most enjoy the battle. But we voters should focus on the war. In this case, the war is immigration.

What is so astounding, and in much need of nurturing, is this case of political war in the USA. The American way is friction, but it is also political fighting and debate and a final vote to bring things to an end. The American way is also National Interest, often condensed after much debate and business advantage being intertwined.

If any of this idealistic diatribe can be achieved, then the pendulum is swinging back and towards the American way. Bipartisanship is the only way to go forward in our National Interest. The real thing includes debate, no shady deals, and a final vote. How more American can we get?

The recent decades of “the politics of personal destruction”, governing by parties and polling focused on reelection and money, and avoidance of the issues of our time as too controversial are on the wane. At least the alternatives are American.
