Quote:
"Candidates are selling little more than a fantasy, a wish list of things they would do if they were king or queen for a day. But America doesn’t do monarchy, and we can’t afford any more wishful thinking. What we need from our aspiring political leaders is recognition of two stark realities.
The first is that neither party is likely to have enough power to get everything it wants anytime soon. For the foreseeable future, Democrats and Republicans in Washington will have to find a way to work together.
If they don’t, they and the country will fail together, because the second reality is that America is running out of time. For the past few years we have benefited from an unearned dividend. Global investors poured money into our currency and companies, not because the U.S. looked so great, but because the rest of the world looked so bad.
This won’t last forever".
