Staying up till past 1am watching results come in for both the Republican and Democratic nominations in yesterday’s Super Tuesday voting, I couldn’t help but think of The West Wing. It seems to me that with the closeness in both party races, we are in for a intense few months leading up to November, proving that each vote does count and that we are still very much divided as a country.
What I enjoyed about The West Wing was how, despite one party being in the fictional White House, the show focused on the issues and often on people coming together to work to make this country better.
In that spirit, watch one of my favorite (more lighthearted) clips from The West Wing below and in the coming months remember to focus on the issues and not the mud that I suspect might be flung. And even though I posted this yesterday, if you haven’t already, please please please
to register and vote!
