Core principles are those without which coherence of self is necessarily compromised

Suppositions

1. There is currently a 23 year old graduate of an Ivy League university, with a stellar resume and a banging GPA, to whom the task of assessing Chelsea Clinton’s record as a financial consultant has been given. Whom employs the said 23 year old is an open question – there are probably six or seven instances of the genus currently opining about the task on Facebook, and the salaries of each individual tasked with this specific research objective, when combined, possibly dwarfs the average income earned by Americans by a factor of at least four (but maybe not). How to fix America – take the $$ proferred to people who represent and are paid by the people who seek to lead, apply it to the national debt, subtract by a factor of seven times the craziness of Mardi Gras last year, and add the average number of kilowatt hours recorded on a combine owned by an Iowa farmer who is a card-carrying member of the Ethanol Is Good Consortium and who owns at least 3000 acres of fertile corn-hospitable land with which to butter his (or her) bread.
2. There is currently a 55 year old mother of three who lives in or near the Quad Cities and who can summon a precinct captain to her house in less than an hour (weekday, evening hours) with so much as an aleatory doubt about her chosen candidate’s electability.
3. Dan Grable is a prize endorsement for any candidate worth his or her salt.
