There
isn't a lot the entire country agrees on, anymore. A few generations
ago, there was so much that brought Americans together. Everyone read
LIFE magazine, listened to Jack Benny on the radio, and then later
watched Ed Sullivan together, every single Sunday night. All Americans
watched the moon landing, were traumatized when Kennedy was shot and
supported the troops.
But today, with a billion cable channels, and specialty magazines on everything from bridal gowns to automatic rifles, and a wildly heterogeneous population, there's not a whole lot that brings us together.
It's pretty much down to the Super Bowl, the Muslim ban, and, as of Tuesday night, loathing Hillary Clinton. [Ann Coulter; NEW JERSEY MAN SLAYS CHILD]
