Thoughts on Voting for a President

Great article from Leon Wieseletier at the New Republic about voting for a president. In marketing you learn, people are complex and as much as we desire to put them in a box and describe them as a means to understand them, most people defy strict categorization. So when we go to vote, how could any candidate accurately embrace or reflect all our contradictions? No wonder people always feel they are choosing between the lesser of two evils>

My favorite part of his article: "McCain feels with his heart, but he thinks with his base. And when he picked Sarah Palin, he told the United States of America to go fuck itself."
