Now that you mention it...

"When you hear the presidential candidates carrying on about democracy and freedom, do you ever wonder what they would be saying if they had been born into societies with different values? ... What if Hillary Clinton had gone to Moscow State University and married a promising young apparatchik?"


When you get down to brass tacks, isn't that pretty much what happened?

His strategy is cunning, indeed, but at some point he's going to have to lay his cards on the table - at which point everyone will be charmed to death by him or will see his policy as a liberal (in the vernacular sense) wish list...

You need something to build bridges with - not vaporware/hot air.
