This has always been a country that harbored and accommodated a large diversity of thought, But while there were many fringe elements, the core of the populace, even those who had ample reason to be distrustful of people with power, believed in our democracy and the basic sanctity of the process. There was respect. That…

We just had a presidential election. The result, Biden won. It was a decisive win, both regarding the popular vote and the electoral college, even with some states still not decided. But, 70 million people voted for Trump, only 4 million less than voted for Biden. 70 million Americans voted for a man who is…

The election is over. Putting aside the recount in Georgia and the undecided status of North Carolina, and for some media outlets, Arizona, Biden clearly has won the election.

Joe Biden is running a strange campaign. Since the COVID-19 restrictions, he has not been seen in public as far as I know. He seems to feel that he has no options other than virtual ones and that he is already a well-enough known persona who people trust that he can beat Trump. And if he looks at…

Yes, Trump is responsible. How has Trump failed each and every one of us, just as regards the coronavirus pandemic? Let me count the ways. Recently, The New York Times reported that some U.S. scientists are saying that even regular masks can be helpful because some protection is better than none. A lead Chinese scientist has said that…

Most of the world is struggling to contain the coronavirus, With most countries approaching the coronavirus in a decidedly low tech and not very effective way: limiting the mass movement of people. The problem is that the people whose movement you really want to limit are those that are infected, but since there is inadequate…
