Writer V.S. Naipaul, who won the 2001 Nobel Prize for Literature, once said, “Democracy is not about voting. It is about debate.” Now that we are close to deciding who the debaters will be in the presidential election, what issues will they battle over?
The economy and health care are perennials. Iraq was up for discussion during the last presidential cycle.
Immigration was around, too. And, like the war in Iraq, the more one learns about it, the more comes out in the open about how we were misled about why we are in the situation we are.”*
