I don’t think we can forget the 2012 election.

It’s a big assumption to think there will be another one. And if there is, do you think there’s a good chance that the electorate will be any more informed than those who voted this last round? Do you think we can improve upon these voters? Won’t there just be an increase in their numbers in 2016?

If you think things will be better in 2016, you’re much more optimistic than I.

P.S. You really, really think there was no difference between Obama and Romney?

Well, you're right. We shouldn't forget about the 2012 election. We should, however accept its outcome and try to learn from it.

I am 99% confident that there will be another election. I can't say how well-informed the voters in the next election will be, but they will know a lot more than you or I know now about events between now and then.

There were, of course, differences between Obama and Romney, but It was very unclear to me what Romney was promising. He has a very liberal background, but he seemed intent on masquerading as a severe conservative. I think he was inauthentic and I think that the voters saw through his impersonation, but many didn't know what to make of him. He seems like a nice man, but a bit strange. Anyway, I don't want to go on badmouthing him. It's time to unite behind going after Obama.

Will you be ready for the next election?
