I disagree that the Vice President should represent the other side, Dem or Repub.
Why? The other side now represents Cultural Marxism and a system of anti-values that are fundamentally at odds with the survival of our nation’s “borders, language and culture” (Michael Savage’s phrase, not mine).
To make the opposing side the VP to the winning president focuses on the mechanics of our current failed system while ignoring its soul, which appears rotten to the core or at least in need of serious overhaul and reorientation back to its fundamental values.
It could also lead to conflict in the Oval Office as the two opposing forces wouldn’t be able to agree on core issues. Unless they’re both corporate (institutional) sociopaths. In that case, they’d only be paying lip service to the ideals that they supposedly stand for, while the real government – the Deep State – would be in full control of the two soulless puppets, as they laugh all the way to the board room, bedroom and bank.
The VP, having to defer to the President, would end up betraying everything that he supposedly stands for, invariably upsetting and demoralizing a large segment of the public seeking a visible counterbalance to the madness (sanity in the case of conservative Republicans) of the other side.
And given that it’s always the Republicans who are called on to compromise and give up their values for a false unity with the Dems, soon there would be nothing worth defending from the radical transformation of the Liberals that would sweep the land like a tsunami.
In a nation devoid of values, perhaps this would work. But not in the current climate of good versus evil politics and national survival, where we now stand.
But thanks for the insights into an imperfect system, Mike.
We look forward to more from the Savage Nation.
