I've been thinking a lot about politics (as usual) lately, but in the past few weeks, I've been coming at it from a different angle than I ordinarily do. Partly, this has been because of some really extraordinary experiences and opportunities I've had lately, and partly it's because I've been distancing myself more than usual from the political discussions. It's inspired me to try and conduct a little exercise here.
Please take this as an academic exercise in every respect. This is not a discussion about what YOU personally believe, and I'm going to moderate it pretty heavily to keep the inevitable personal attacks to a minimum. Here's what we need to start:
- I need a volunteer to play the role of President.
- I need a volunteer to play the role of the collective allies of the President's country.
- I need a volunteer to play the enemies of the President's country.
- And finally, I need volunteer to play the Press.
Once we get our volunteers, I'll drop the scenario on you. This will no doubt be a fun one, so let's jump in and commit to the game.
Thanks to all...
