Letter: I fear we will never get past this division
inforum - I can vividly remember my first interest in politics. It was 1996 and I was in the sixth grade. Bob Dole was challenging incumbent President Bill Clinton. I didn't know anything about our toxic two party system, but I understood that both of these men wanted to be president, and they both presented themselves as decent men who cared about our country. They had different ideas, but respected one another.
