>I wish there was some way we as a country could get past all this polarization. Call me naive but I genuinely had hope that Obama would bring people with different positions closer together. After six months in office it is already clear we are still as polarized, if not more so, as we were through the Clinton and Bush years. People don't just disagree any more.

First of all: He calls it like it is: Neither right nor left, but Republicrats..... his whole premise is that it is government, lawmakers, etc that are out of touch, out of control and out to pad their own prosperity at the expense of America and of the citizenry that put them in office.

Obama can't bring people together, because he is part of the problem in Washington.
