Her appeal to virtuousness is naive.

Poor fellow. Her appeal to virtuousness is directly in line with that of the Founders. Try reading them. Of course, you'll probably come away clucking about how naive they all were, mistaking your almost unconscious cynicism for worldly wisdom.

I believe you are right. On second thought and listening to the show as it went along, I believe it represented the start of the GOP presidential campaign. Starting on the basis that character counts, i.e. virtue is an excellent beginning. My initial reaction was premature and based on my repulsion of the corrupting meme of ‘can’t we all get along’. I realize it was not this at all. Well done Merry M.
