Given the spelling, I assume you allude to the Zulu king, and not the pop singer. (By the way, the pop singer sang at the Republican Convention). Anyway, you give the term "elitist" a negative connotation. An elite certainly can be self- serving, but it can also be gallant and public spirited. In fact, our Founding Fathers were just such an elite. I do not despise simple men, but I do not think they would have done half so well as the Founders.

I am not a huge fan of George Will, but I like him well enough, and I do not mind the comparison. I think you underestimate some of the participants on the board, but since they seem to like to trade insults with you, I try not to interfere too much.

I will take a look at the page you suggest.
