More Belle

Politics is supposed to be boring. I don't remember when or why I first got turned on to it. Maybe it was when my mom took me out canvassing for Barry Goldwater in 1964.

Maybe I felt it had a strong connection to sales - way before I even knew sales was something I'd end up doing. It's always just kinda turned my crank - talking with people, trying to get them to do something.

IDK. But like Belle says, I'm pretty sure it's supposed be a helluva lot more than entertainment.

We shouldn't be tuning in because we get a kick out of watching the antics of some jagoff who thinks his rhetoric is on par with Cicero, when he's just belching out the banalities he saw in the comments of some 3rd rate grifting "influencer" online.

We're supposed to be doing these things because we want to make life a bit better for each other.
