Societies get it right -- eventually.

Hard for me to believe that the Romney/Ryan ticket could win the presidential election. But then, societies do some mighty peculiar things. South Africa had apartheid for a long, long time. And the Germans had the Third Reich. So I suppose there's nothing stopping America from having Romney/Ryan. But I'm an optimist. South Africa rid itself of apartheid. And the modern-day Germans look at Hitler with disdain. Goes to show that when things go wrong, societies eventually get it right. --Jim Broede
