BRACK: Comments from readers show pressures on our democratic republic

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | Converging pressures are on our democratic republic like never before.

Once somewhat isolated by oceans that protected us, today’s cyber world knows no boundaries.

Today it’s not just other nations that threaten us. We have significant internal problems our country has not faced ever before.

FOCUS: Democrats come together to elect nominee, oppose GOP nominee

By Alvin Leaphart, Jesup, Ga. | Regardless of your political views, attending this convention to help select our nominee for the President of the United States is one of the many aspects that makes our nation unique in the selection of our leader. In most of the world, a change in government is made through some sort of coup, either military or assassination.

HOUSTON: Democrats and Republicans can learn from one another

HOUSTON: Democrats and Republicans can learn from one another

By Debra Houston | Democrats and Republicans can learn from one another. Democrats are strong on emotion, but often short on reason. Republicans are just the opposite. They are strong on reason, but often short on emotion.

Empathy is entirely appropriate in politics, but sometimes Democrats twist it into something hateful. They exploit the emotions of minorities when they portray Republicans as “the enemy,” as did Mrs. Clinton at a rally in October.
