What will renew us?
For as long as I have been conscious of such things, bitter confrontation has characterized the political process of the United States of America.I do not mistake the mudslinging practiced by my elected representatives for debate, and I do crave something better, but by now I am conditioned to endure this state of partisanship, one which can best be described as violent.I am so thoroughly conditioned that it did not surprise or even upset me that politics at Princeton looked and sounded remarkably similar to what I read in the papers about Washington, D.C.
