>> I have no love for Rs but when a president starts to pretend they don't exist then the US is in far more worse straits than it is now. Personally, I don't think this country will stay together but Obama and his successors have to keep trying to reflect the entire country while they are president. Once Obama is gone perhaps we can get back on track. For now, it is a lost cause until 2016. Perhaps we'll elect an adult as Obama's successor. Have you even considered that possibility. God, can you imagine the positive effect on the world had Romney been elected in '12? It will be great to have someone in the WH who actually knows WTF he's doing. I really think Benjamin Carson is the man for 2016. It is going to be fun to watch you guys squirm.
