What is your REAL concern about the opposing political party -- and -- ?

what would address or quell your concern?

I’ve had a few people explain their position in a friendly and cogent matter—and I STILL may not agree with them or maybe I know something they don’t. But I admittedly get my bias reinforced when there is name-calling, lies, and hate-speech (especially personal attacks—about me, people who think and live like me, or the parties or persons I feel represent me).

I admit the way I’d like things might not be right for everyone. And I know that works in one place or country might not work in mine but might work somewhere else.

But most of all, I know that at least HALF of us (divided equally among parties) are intelligent, rational people who have REAL concerns, not just innuendo and indoctrination, about the opposing party.

What are your concerns, and what would make you feel better about the opposing party if they did differently?

For clarity purposes lets TRY to keep this non-judgemental although I know we won’t be 100 percent successful and we ARE, after all, dealing with SOME assumptions, biases, and bad information we have.

Rather than scrapping the question, I’m posting it. Lets have a go at it.
