It has occurred to some of the good members here who post regularly in this forum that there is a certain unproductive repetitiveness to our more doctrinaire approaches to things political. As this is a large problem in the outside world - where one can not simply walk away from political realities, perhaps we could set ourselves to the task of deconstructing/reconstructing political dialog toward more productive ends.

A personal note: I'm ratcheting down my own level of intensity here and I hope others do the same. For example, I am preparing myself for the possibility that my candidate will not become the next US President. I am working on accepting that situation, continuing on a constructive path, and being a good positive-minded citizen.

Why? Because I understand that here on this board, and in real life, we are on the same side as potential targets for the threats that exist in the world and we are also mutually organized and engaged in creating better lives for ourselves and for society as a whole. I prefer to work toward the strength that can come from a sense of unity and overriding commonality of purpose. I'm interested in forging some solidarity and minimizing some of the divisiveness between us as possible.

This thread is a place to contribute similarly-minded considerations.

Thanks in advance.
