"Your people, sir, are a beast." --Alexander Hamilton
Left to their own devices, people will make the worst decisions. Isn't it a national humiliation that in a nation of over 293 million people, the best we can come up with are the likes of Albert Gore and George Bush to duke it out to represent us? This is because the primaries went away from smoke-filled backroom negotiations and into the hands of the partisans, i.e., the People. We end up voting against either Gore or Bush, based on who offends us least. And that is a sad state of affairs.
