Beware The Politically Obsessed. They Are Often Bright And Interesting, But They Have Something Missing In Their Natures; There Is A Hole, An Empty Place, And They Use Politics To Fill It Up. It Leaves Them Somehow Misshapen.

No News Conferences? Interviews Now Only With Friendly Journalists? You Can't Be President Or Vice President And Govern In That Style, As A Sequestered Figure. This Has Been Mr. Bush's Style The Past Few Years, And See Where It Got Us.

When You Don't, When You Play Only To Your Little Piece, You Contribute To Its Fracturing.
