Blind 020917

Party loyalty is commendable for campaigning but once elected, politicians represents all within their respective electorates.  Elected officials must put aside blind ideological party support.  Lock step votes for extremist positions are bad for the voters and the country.  Neither left nor right represents the electorate and extreme party line votes leaves three quarters of the population un-represented.  There are two possible outcomes from blind embrace of extreme ideology: Totalitarian suppression of the majority or its embrace of revolution.  Either outcome must be avoided. Officials are elected to openly consider the issues and vote for what is best for the majority while protecting the minorities.

Votes to appoint the unqualified, and extremist out of party loyalty insures the ultimate decline and fall of the State.  Majorities are slow to react but once aroused they are impossible to stop and the State fragments.
