If you stare at this VEN DIAGRAM image, --->and sort of relax your eyes... let them cross a little bit. Slowly bring your nose away from your computer screen...
And you will see THE TRUTH in the middle.
...Or maybe you will see a ship...or an old lady.
Look.
There are many opinions.
Two sides to many things.
Many perspectives.
There are two major parties.
Sometimes it is about right and wrong.
But often it is about seeing through the spin,
and the two-sidedness,
and seeing the middle of the ven diagram.
Compromise in the midst of crisis.
Couldn't we all try to agree on the good,
logical, ethical, sensible truth
at the core of most anything?
"We may not agree on abortion, but surely we can agree on reducing the number of unwanted pregnancies in this country. The reality of gun ownership may be different for hunters in rural Ohio than for those plagued by gang-violence in Cleveland, but don't tell me we can't uphold the Second Amendment while keeping AK-47s out of the hands of criminals. I know there are differences on same-sex marriage, but surely we can agree that our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters deserve to visit the person they love in the hospital and to live lives free of discrimination."
-BARACK OBAMA
Barack Obama believes in that. And I believe in that.
I want a leader who speaks about underlying truths and understands them.
Therefore, I believe Barack Obama is a great choice for President.
