No sense in buyer’s remorse at this point. We just have to find some way to make the best of the situation.
We do need some changes though. Consider this, the allotted pres-vice pres pairings were the best the current system could come up with. So changes should really be made, so that in the future we encourage more competence in candidates for office here in the US.
Of course, now I think about it more fully, office holders would have to make those changes. So I guess I wouldn’t count on that happening either.
Sigh.
