It's an Inherited Condition



May 23, 2020


On my walk today, I saw a sign for a political candidate who has demonstrated beyond the shadow of a doubt that he is not trustworthy enough to hold any office.

I reflected that political affiliation often seems to be inherited. It’s not a matter of reason; for many people it’s as much a part of them as their (original) hair color or height. No amount of arguing or even hard evidence will convince them to vote for a candidate who is not of their political party.

You might as well try to change people’s eye color as to change their minds about politics.
