Trump commands endless attention because the media adore him - we are all fascinated by him, even those of us who loathe him - here we are discussing him again! bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09122791819498272634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-667348909154981284.post-13975888292579201922016-10-01T04:44:34.684-07:002016-10-01T04:44:34.684-07:00Is mankind inherently good or evil?

Jean-Jacques Rousseau believed that man is good by nature, but corrupted by society. Studies of babies suggest that even the youngest humans have a sense of right and wrong, and, therefore, an instinct to prefer good over evil.<br /><br />I also wonder how someone like Trump can command such attention. My theory is ignorance: that the majority of Trump supporters are embittered, narrow-minded, NRA-supporting rednecks, no? <br /><br />On the other hand, as much as I support Hillary for President, she's no angel. Her friendships with neocons Henry Kissinger and Madeleine Albright (who also serve as her top informal advisors on foreign policy) is worrying. Her successful campaign to have Muammar Gaddafi eliminated was, and still is, a DISASTER. As disastrous as Iraq. Gaddafi provided stability in the region. With him gone, all hell broke loose and I find it hard to believe that U.S. intelligence didn't foresee that.<br /><br />see Huff Post article - "How Hillary Clinton Turned a Stable, Developed Nation Into an ISIS Safe Haven"<br /><br />JulietAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
