Betsy - And what an ugly, unattractive and boring place that is, hunh? I mean, think how unsexy that sounds, how uncontroversial the phrase “common ground” sounds. Look at our government. It's so impossible for them to find common ground, because if they had common ground they’d have nothing to have a press conference about and nothing to fight over. So common ground is the most unsexy, un-commercial, unmarketable place you can try to get to. But it's the place where we have to get to if we're going to actually have a shift. pg: 1 2 3 4 5
