In an Op Ed below Eugene Robinson does a good job of summing up the political chaos we are experiencing today. At 69 I am familiar with the political chaos that resulted from the Vietnam war and later Watergate. But this is somehow different. Even in the late 60 s and early 70 s I don’t think people totally lost faith in their government, Today on the Republican side we have a rodeo clown reality TV star dominating and on the Democratic side an independent socialist is giving Hilary Clinton a challenge. People no longer see their government as their guardian and protector.
