Identity Politics

Pick One

I have been asked by the Kennedy Library to recommend someone for this year's Profiles in Courage Award. Bring that this year, like most, is the Year of the Woman, they have given me a list of possible female candidates as follows:

Elizabeth Warren

Diane Feinstein

Maxine Waters

Christine Blasey Ford

Hillary Clinton

Susan Collins

Kristen Gillibrand

Kamala Harrus

I have one of these women in mind, but I'm not sure that she will be well received. What do you think?

Hip Shooters

There seems to be a growing cadre of cowboys that shoot from the hip. This "ready, fire, aim" trend is discordant to many and does introduce more risk into  commerce and information flows. Here is a short list of these caballeros:

Donald J. Trump

Dom Lemon

Elon Musk

Michael Avaneti

Kim Jong-un

Jim Acosta

James Comey

Rudy Giuliani

Maxine Waters

Rand Paul

Joe Scarborough

Omarosa Newman

I guess this list is getting longer than I thought ... and it could go on a lot more. It's  looking more and more like the OK corral.
