In a world that is becoming increasingly fragmented and polarized, here in the U.S., and around the world, I thought it might be useful to offer a way of looking at things to help bring order to the chaos, and manage the confusion, so that we can choose our leaders wisely, and not randomly. Ultimately, so that we can choose the great leaders we deserve, and we can understand where we might be heading as a nation.
First, we need to identify our leaders, then focus on their message and finally make sure their message is realistic and achievable. If we don’t have a good leader in the first instance, it doesn’t much matter what the message is. And if the message is great, but unattainable, it’s pretty much useless. In short, we need a great leader, with real solutions to our problems and a way to pay for those solutions.
