This election=the consequences of steadily eroding civic participation, a national ideology that puts individual and tribal self-interest over the common good, a public square that is not really a public square but a place for powerful private interests to advertise, and an electorate that has so much information and yet is so horribly misinformed (can't blame 'em, though, with the majority of the media in this nation being dictated by about five Fortune 500 corporations).
In other words, I sympathize greatly with Al's OP.
