I was watching BBC coverage of the landslide election in India.

The BBC reporters (left leaning, in my opinion)were manifesting concern that the winner would be “divisive” if he represented the members of his party.

Got that? The guy just won in a landslide but BBC says he will divisive if he represents the voters.

BBC just getting warmed up for when the UKIP wins.

“Got that? The guy just won in a landslide but BBC says he will divisive if he represents the voters.”

That’s what happens when logic and reason are not foundation stones in the thinking process. They just as well be speaking a foreign language - the language they speak is practically incomprehensible. Coherent and productive conversation with them is impossible.

Of course. If the Right wins, they are required to be "bipartisan". If the Left wins, it's a "mandate" and the attitude is "we won".

To the media it is all about coving for the ELITES of the world - doesn't seem to matter what country it is. Journalism is dead and should be stripped of their constitutional protects here in the USA. They were given these extra measures to make sure Americans would always have access to the truth and the ruling elite lying would not go unnoticed. How has that worked out in the past 75 years?

Divisive because like politicians everywhere, they vote for what benefits the ruling elite instead of what is best for the country.

It makes perfect sense that someone who wants to represent the voters would be considered “divisive” in DC. She wants to represent the voters. They are out for themselves and the media is on the establishment side, hence they consider her “divisive”

Using that term says a lot more about the establishment pols and the media than it does about the 17 year old would-be-congressman.

Indians (500 Million voted!) just elected the equivalent of Tea Party in US. It’s name is not “Hindu Nationalist” party regardless of being called that incessantly in MSM. It’s correct name is BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party). It’s objectives are to decentralize central (in US federal) government, giving more autonomy to state governments, privatize government operated industries, and deregulate.

In other words it is pro capitalism party. Nehru’s Congress party was all about central government in New Delhi running the country. During my days growing up in India, the government ran Airlines, Telephone service, machine tools manufacturing (HMT), military aircraft manufacturing, Banks, insurance, cement, steel, post office, and Railroads! Railroads are the main transport system in India boasting the largest length of tracks in the world.
