Raymond Shaw is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.
Anybody who ever saw the movie The Manchurian Candidate would have quickly thought it rather odd that every soldier captured in Korea with Raymond Shaw gave identical answers when asked to describe him. However, when associates of Hillary used identical answers to describe her, Ezra Klein of Vox seems not to notice anything strange there.

If that’s all it takes, then I submit that we have millions of qualified candidates, without the baggage! Just grab some random quiet person off the street!
People's minds don't work when they see and hear politicians they like. They catch every fault and failing of the politicos they hate, but when it comes to the ones they agree with, they just see a hazy bright spot and hear muzak. So it's easy for them to just dismiss and discount criticism and wonder why people don't see the candidate like they do. And people are all the blinder when they meet the candidate up close. That's why "Hillary is different in person." It's hard to resist the personal aura of famous people when you're already in love with them.

Excellent observation.
We all have our favorites (and most disliked), but we shouldn’t worship any of these people. Give both praise and condemnation when due.
LOL!
Listeners don't cordon themselves off from the public, and listeners don't plant questions, they invite them.
Listeners actually like people, and want to hear what they have to say and ask.
